FARM CAMP: lessons in bike & outdoor life skills
FARM CAMP: lessons in bike & outdoor life skills
Friday, June 5 - Sunday, June 7, 2026
Worlds End School | Esperance, NY
Instructors: Cheylene Tattersall
Most of us move through the outdoors with a desire to know more than we do. This is the weekend you can actually learn it. We’ll spend three days biking and camping at the farm. You’ll leave knowing how to change a flat tire, pitch a tent, and build a bonfire with your bare hands. Sunday ends with our annual Spring Fling, so you can head home with plants, ceramics, and soap in your bag.
This class is for anyone who wants to spend a weekend on their bike and outside.
There are many ways to participate regardless of physical ability. If you are worried about mobility or physical limitations, please reach out to us directly at mail@worldsendschool.org.
