School Holiday Camps
At Connolly Ranch, we transform school breaks into unforgettable adventures! Nestled in the heart of Napa Valley, our ranch is a haven where children can connect with nature, animals, and each other in a meaningful way.
Our School Break Camps—offered during Thanksgiving, Winter, and Spring Break—provide multi-day programs designed to inspire curiosity and foster a love for the natural world. From hands-on farm-to-table cooking and creative nature crafts to exploring our thriving garden and learning alongside our friendly animals, every activity is rooted in fun and discovery.
At Connolly Ranch, kids will meet goats, sheep, and chickens, hike along scenic trails, and engage in seasonal projects that reflect the rhythms of the farm. Each day offers new opportunities to dig into the soil, climb, play, and unplug in the great outdoors.
Join us for a school break like no other—where lifelong memories are made and connections with nature bloom!

Thanksgiving Break Camp at Connolly Ranch is a celebration of the season’s magic, filled with gratitude, mindfulness, and fall-inspired adventures. Campers will dive into hands-on farm-to-table experiences, creating delicious seasonal treats—2024 camp highlights included roasted squash hummus and homemade vegan donuts! Together, we’ll savor the joy of sharing food prepared with fresh, local ingredients.
Creativity and connection shine through nature-inspired crafts, such as crafting gratitude mobiles and whimsical pinecone sculptures. Campers also explore the beauty of the ranch with calming hikes, immersive garden adventures, and plenty of opportunities to reflect on the wonders of nature.
A special highlight of our 2024 camp was the debut of a camper-led show by our older campers, bringing everyone together in a heartwarming celebration of creativity and community. We hope to continue this tradition in 2025, making Thanksgiving Break Camp a cherished experience for all who attend.
