Hawthorne Valley is seeking creative, energetic, mindful individuals to join our team of counselors for our Farm & Arts Summer Camps!
We offer both day and overnight camps for children ages 8-16. Summer camp counselors will guide campers through hands-on, nature-based activities while living on our 900-acre organic, diversified Biodynamic® farm. A typical day with campers might be spent feeding farm animals, gardening, crafting, hiking, making music, swimming in our pond, and more! If you love working with children and being outdoors – this could be the perfect summer job for you!
Our camps offer a safe and encouraging environment where children can reconnect with nature, learn new skills, and make lasting friendships. Our camp staff is committed to providing campers with a tech-free, engaging, and fun experience during their stay at the farm. We look for counselors who enjoy working with children, love being in nature, have a positive attitude, and are hardworking.
Working at Hawthorne Valley summer camps is a highly rewarding experience. As a counselor, you will serve as a community builder and role model for children and teens- a job that is both fulfilling and challenging! During staff training and throughout the summer, camp managers and directors will provide you with the tools and training you will need to succeed as a counselor.
Counselors can expect to develop both personally and professionally during your summer with us. If you are invested in the job and bring your best self every day, you will leave Hawthorne Valley with a greater understanding of youth development, regenerative agriculture, and meaningful friendships.
Room & Board at Camp:
We provide housing and all meals for residential camp counselors. Senior day camp counselors are provided housing. Please check our website for more details on room and board for specific roles at camp.
The food at Hawthorne Valley sets us apart from most camps. You certainly won’t find any pre-made, frozen products in our kitchen! Our Dining Hall staff prepares farm-fresh delicious meals and snacks from scratch. Our menu features mostly vegetarian fare prepared with Biodynamic and organic ingredients. Most produce comes directly from Hawthorne Valley Farm and the rest is sourced from other organic Hudson Valley growers. Campers and staff eat together family-style, fostering the community-building spirit of the camp.
Our Dining Hall staff can accommodate most dietary restrictions.
Ideal Candidates:
All Hawthorne Valley Summer Camp staff must be committed to fostering an inclusive, safe, and welcoming environment for both campers and fellow staff members.
About the Area:
Most camp staff enjoy spending their time off exploring nearby towns or hiking in the surrounding area. Whatever your interests are, you’ll find lots to do for fun during your time off in the Hudson Valley!
Dates:
Our summer camp season will run from June 25 – August 4, 2023. Counselors will be expected to arrive on the farm on Wednesday, June 14 for a week and a half of staff training prior to the start of camp.
Priority is given to applicants who are able to commit for the entirety of the summer season (June 14 – August 4, 2023).
Salary:
The salary range for counselors is $3,200 – $4,700 for the season, depending on skills and qualifications. Housing and all organic meals are provided.
