From pre-school to middle school, campers connect with nature while exploring the woodlands, prairies and wetlands of the Arboretum.


Now in its 19th season, Earth Focus Day Camp (EFDC) continues to create outstanding summer nature programs for children ages 3-14. With many different ecosystems including the oldest restored tall grass prairie in the world, the UW-Madison Arboretum provides hands-on experience with native Wisconsin plants, animals and habitats.

The research and restoration taking place here teaches children that they can be a positive influence on their world. Our naturalists are enthusiastic and experienced, but the real teacher at Earth Focus Day Camp is our most treasured resource, the land.

Earth Focus Day Camp 2011 runs from June 14 through August 12. For more information contact Jennifer Mitchell at 608-265-5872 or mitchell5@uwarb.wisc.edu
