Summer Camps
with IBG

Get excited for a summer full of activity and fun at the Idaho Botanical Garden!

Summer camps at IBG feature hands-on, activity-focused, experiential programming that supports creativity, problem-solving, and fostering a passion for the natural world. Participants in our summer camps with IBG conduct experiments like scientists, discover the Treasure Valley’s complex ecology, and explore our outdoor classroom and living museum. Learning and fun combined into one!

We are excited to offer extended camper programming at the Garden - over 5 hours per day! This means learners will participate in structured activities, eat their lunch on-site, and explore our outdoor classroom in varying weather conditions.

To ensure the best camper experiences, ideal learners will have completed Kindergarten or previously participated in a daycare and/or preschool educational setting and be at least five years of age when camp is held.
