Ways to Give

Your generous Annual Fund gift today will sustain our Vermont summer camps and make a lasting impact in the lives of young people.

Annual giving supports Farm & Wilderness camp programs, our farm and our campership program, and gifts can be designated specifically for campership.

Farm & Wilderness is a 501(c)3 charitable organization (EIN: 03-0228965). Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

What bonds campers together better than a warm campfire? Become a member of our Campfire Circle and make those warm memories possible for Farm & Wilderness campers when the summer comes around. Campfire Circle members make a monthly gift, providing steady, reliable support for Farm & Wilderness and making your annual commitment easier for you to budget.

With a gift of just $10, $20 or $30 a month, Campfire Circle members will help campers:

• grow the food they harvest to enjoy on their plates
• learn to use tools to build a work project they can take pride in, and
• gain confidence to climb, canoe and hike the mountains, rivers, and trails of Vermont and beyond

With a monthly gift of $50 to $100, you can put a transformative summer experience within reach for a camper in need.
