Reviews of Camp Urban Adamah?
I am looking at Camp Adamah in Berkeley for my 6-year-old son for this summer, but can't seem to find any reviews. I like the idea of him doing farm work and the Jewish elements are appealing for our family. Has anyone done this camp? Could you please share pros and cons of your experience? My son is easily engaged in outdoor "work" and play and loves being out in nature. I would love to hear what others liked or not about staff and overall camp experience. Thank you!!

Hello, my son went to an Adamah camp last year for the first time (based on a recommendation from my friends). He was 8. He loved it! He enjoyed getting dirty, meeting the animals, learning to cook rustically and sharing what he learned with his family. I attended the Shabbat on Friday that closes each camp, and it was a delight. We are not Jewish, but the Jewish elements were appealing and not overt. My son is going to another Adamah camp this year. I show him the options, and he chooses one. I highly recommend your family participate in the Family Volunteer event (free) on 2/26 to check out the camp and get firsthand experience with it.
