Humber Arboretum day camps are based out of the Centre for Urban Ecology, but campers will spend most of their time outdoors where they will make their own discoveries in the forest, river, meadows, wetlands, gardens, and ponds of the Humber Arboretum.
Every week of camp includes forest exploration, pond dipping, ecology games, and swimming, plus other activities inspired by the weekly theme:
