Welcome to Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp!

Where friendships grow!

🌈 15 YEARS. SO MANY MEMORIES. ONE FINAL CAMP. ❤️🐐

As we close the gates on the final year of Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp, we find ourselves feeling a little bit of everything—grateful, proud, emotional, and, of course, incredibly bittersweet.

For 15 amazing years, we have had the honor of welcoming your children onto our farm.

We watched them get muddy.

We watched them laugh.

We watched friendships grow.

We watched kids discover animals, try new things, overcome challenges, and simply enjoy being kids. 🐐🐑🦙🐓

And along the way, they became part of the Rainbow Ridge family.

❤️ To all of the parents who trusted us with your most precious people—thank you. Thank you for believing in what we were creating here and for allowing us to be a small part of your children's childhoods.

❤️ To all of our campers—thank you for filling this farm with your energy, laughter, questions, creativity, and joy. You have left your footprints here in more ways than one, and you will always be part of the Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp story.

❤️ To our incredible staff and counselors, past and present—thank you for your time, patience, creativity, hard work, and the heart you gave to these kids. Camp simply would not have been what it was without you.

We feel incredibly honored to have shared our farm with so many wonderful families for 15 years.

This farm has been the backdrop for friendships, adventures, scraped knees, baby animals, campfires, laughter, learning, and countless special moments.

Saying goodbye to something that has been such a big part of our lives isn't easy.

But more than anything, we feel grateful.

Grateful for 15 years.

Grateful for thousands of memories.

Grateful for every camper who walked through our gates.

Grateful for every parent who trusted us.

Grateful for every staff member who helped make camp special.

And grateful that we were lucky enough to call this place home and share it with all of you. 🌈

While Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp is coming to an end, Rainbow Ridge Farms is not going anywhere. ❤️

Our Farmstay Bed & Breakfast will remain open, and we look forward to continuing to welcome guests to our farm, share our animals, and create new memories in a different way.

The farm will keep growing.

The animals will keep making us laugh.

And Rainbow Ridge will continue to welcome people through its gates.

But Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

Thank you for 15 unforgettable years. ❤️

And now we'd love to hear from you...

💬 Former campers, parents, counselors, and staff—what is your favorite Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp memory?

Maybe it was a favorite animal, a crazy camp adventure, a special friendship, something you built, something you learned, or simply a moment that still makes you smile.

Share your memories in the comments. We'd love to fill this post with stories from the past 15 years. 🌈🐐❤️

With love and gratitude,

Cindy & Donna

Rainbow Ridge Farms

Rainbow Ridge is located just north of La Crosse Wisconsin . Youth ages 7-12 will develop confidence through farm-work, exploration, and play amid life on the farm. If you have a child between the ages of 5-6 that would like to come to camp, please contact us directly. Here, children learn to care for animals, cultivate and harvest vegetables, and learn what it means to be good stewards of the earth. The children will participate in hands-on culinary and creative activities that connect them to food, farming, and nature. Our organized farm activities including caring for goats, sheep, chickens, pigs, and calves. Farm-to-table gardening, cooking, crafts, and outdoor fun round out the week. We provide your child with the opportunity to learn valuable life skills, make new friends, and discover new interests, all while participating in real life on a local farm. Rainbow Ridge Farm Camp sows the seeds of responsibility, respect, community and stewardship. Students reap the rewards for a lifetime.
