Garden Camp is back for an exciting summer of outdoor fun and learning!

Garden Camp connects children to plants and each other through structured activities and unstructured play, all amidst plants from around the world. We strive to enrich the “whole child” and develop a deep appreciation for plants, comfort with outdoor learning, and a lifelong love for the Gardens of Golden Gate Park.

The genus Dracula represents over 100 species, with a natural habitat ranging from Mexico down to Peru.
