CAMP GROW at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens, in Vienna, VA, invites children and teens to explore nature through hands-on discovery activities, gardening, nature walks, hikes, art, crafts, storytelling, and animal programs. Picnic lunches in the Gardens, games, and cooperative challenges add to camp fun, encourage new friendships, and provide great summer memories.  Our camp staff works hard to create a curriculum that weaves new activities with familiar annual traditions. 

CAMP GROW is designed to engage, challenge, educate, and encourage a sense of community. We value and encourage the inclusion of all campers in every activity.
