Fundraising Events
Farm & Wilderness hosts one big annual fundraising event, the annual F&W Fair Weekend. The Fair starts with a Friday-night, family friendly BBQ and is followed by the main event all day on Saturday.
The Farm & Wilderness Fair, held on the second Saturday in August, features traditional Fair activities accented with unique F&W traditions and always offers a day of fun for the entire family. Hand-powered rides, camper-grown and harvested produce and homesteading foods, and hand-made boutique items are all available from camper-run booths. Music, song, dance, swimming, and a huge bonfire are favorite features of this annual event that showcases F&W's commitment to organic farming and environmental sustainability.
Together, proceeds from the Alum BBQ and Fair raise an average of $15,000 annually, which is allocated to our Campership Fund (camp scholarships).
