For Adventurous Explorers!

Mactivity Sessions

Our ‘Mactivity Sessions’ are the perfect way to get kids outdoors, active, and exploring nature! Designed for adventurous explorers aged 6 and up, these 2-hour sessions are packed with exciting activities led by our friendly and trained activity leaders.

Each session might include Nerf Battles, bushcraft skills like fire lighting and shelter building, creative crafts such as natural cordage bracelet making, and a whole mix of games and outdoor challenges — all designed to inspire confidence, creativity, and connection with the great outdoors.

Parents can relax and enjoy the farm while the kids are off having fun, but must remain on-site during the session.

Whether your child is a nature lover, thrill-seeker, or just bursting with energy, Mactivity Sessions offer safe, supervised outdoor fun they’ll never forget.

Our Mactivity Sessions are recommended for ages 6-12 years of age.
