Rancho Compasión Summer Camp

Marin Mommies presents a sponsored shout-out article from Rancho Compasión in Nicasio.

Located in the rolling hills of Nicasio in Marin County, Rancho Compasión offers a unique outdoor summer camp for ages 5–12 on 17 acres of Coast Miwok land. Our animal sanctuary is home to over 100 rescued farm animals, creating a meaningful farm and nature-based camp experience.

Campers enjoy a supportive, engaging environment filled with hands-on animal care, nature exploration, and outdoor learning. Each week at Rancho Compasión Summer Camp offers a unique experience rooted in connection, confidence-building, and discovery. Children care for rescued farm animals, explore habitats, and participate in garden-to-table activities that deepen their understanding of the interconnectedness of all living beings. Every session blends creativity, movement, and exploration—helping campers build meaningful relationships with nature, animals, and the land while creating a memorable and enriching summer experience.

A highlight of camp is our half-acre organic garden, where campers participate in garden-to-table learning, discovering where food comes from and how it connects to the health of the earth.

We also provide a fresh, organic lunch each day, nourishing campers with seasonal ingredients—many grown right here at the sanctuary.

Perfect for animal lovers, nature enthusiasts, and curious explorers, Rancho Compasión Summer Camp inspires compassion, connection, and a love for the natural world.
