Digging, planting, and harvesting give kids a daily dose of fresh air and earthbound wonder.
The garden is where wild things (and great ideas) grow.
Kids share ideas, swap stories, and spark projects together in a perfect swirl of creative chaos.
(Oh, and we do plenty of *actual* mixing too—slime, batter, compost.)
We learn safe, confident use of real tools—hammers, hand drills, kitchen knives, garden clippers.
Hands-on work builds skills, focus, and pride in making.
Camp culture means support, laughter, and room for every voice.
We welcome diverse ideas, creative problem-solving, and the joy of belonging.

Hello! What ages is Camp Woodlark for? 🤔
Hey, thanks for asking! Grades 1 through 5 — the big-kid crew of curious makers, gardeners, and outdoor explorers. 🌿✨
Where are you located? 📍
4606 SE Adams St, Milwaukie, OR 97222. We're nestled in under a towering old oak in a peaceful little neighborhood. 🌰🐿️🍃
Can my child take the bus from school to Camp Woodlark? 🚌
Yes! If your child’s school district allows alternate drop-off sites, you can list Camp Woodlark (4606 SE Adams St, Milwaukie, OR 97222) on their bussing permission form.
What are your hours? ⏰
Monday–Friday, 2:30 – 6 PM during the school year. Summer runs longer — we’ll post those times soon! 👍🌞
Who runs the camp?
That’d be Teacher Geoff — dad to an 8-year-old, lifelong teacher, gardener, cook, and maker. 🌿👨🍳🔨 He started Camp Woodlark to blend hands-on learning, creativity, and slow-food living for kids who love to explore.
Do you offer part-time options? 🙏
Yup! 3-day, 4-day, and 5-day plans — with bigger savings the more days you come. 👍👍
So what’s a typical day like?
Short version? Garden dirt ➜ kitchen projects ➜ creative chaos ➜ snack ➜ laughter ➜ home. 😝🤣
What do you mean by “hands in the earth,” “mix,” and “tools”? 🤔
Our four pillars: 🌱 Earth – dig, plant, explore nature 🥣 Mix – cook & collaborate 🔨 Tools – build safely & confidently 🤝 All Together – community & camp culture 🙏💛
From Dad With Too Many Tabs Open 11:19 AM
What should my kid bring?
Water bottle, weather-proof clothes, sturdy shoes, and a fearless spirit. 🥾💦✌️
Are snacks provided? 🥕
Yup! We make and share hearty, seasonal snacks — fruits, veggies, and bread we bake together.
How do you handle allergies or dietary needs? 🚫
Super carefully. You’ll list everything on the parent form, and all staff stay in the loop.
What is your staff : child ratio?
Around 1 adult for every 6–8 kids — small groups, big fun. 😂
From Henry Pollard 2:39 PM
Is Camp Woodlark licensed? 📝
Yep! We’re fully licensed by the State of Oregon and run by trained educators. CPR, First-Aid, the works. 🙌🏕️
Sounds perfect for my mud-loving kid. How do we sign up?
Easy! Hit Join the Trail → pick your plan → complete the parent agreement online. (And we totally like to think of "dirtbag" as a compliment around here!) 🌱💧🫘
What’s the Wi-Fi password? 😏
LOL, nice try — we’re strictly analog out here. Closest thing to Wi-Fi is the squirrels yelling in the trees. 😂🌰📵
What's your cancellation policy?
We fully understand that life happens so worries - however we do ask for a 30-day notice before cancelling a subscription plan so that our business can keep trucking financially! ✌️
From Maeby Fünke 4:01 PM
Why are you called Camp Woodlark?
The name was inspired by the woodlark (Lullula arborea) — an unassuming little brown songbird often found tottering through the underbrush. It’s a humble, busy, goblin-hearted creature that spends its time close to the earth but sings a remarkably creative, spiraling song. That mix of groundedness and imagination is what we hope to bring to life here at camp. 🌲🎶
Who are Hugo and Nyx?
Our mascots! Hugo is a big, gentle, Pacific Northwest adventure-yeti, and Nyx is his tiny woodlark sidekick with hiking boots and boundless curiosity. Together they capture our mix of wild wonder and handmade creativity. 🏔️🕊️💛
