F&W is a non-profit educational organization operating six summer camps and programs for children and teens, a family camp, retreat rentals, and a conservation organization. Encompassing over 1,500-acres in the Green Mountains of Vermont, our camps and programs are known to be joyful, creative places full of adventure where staff and campers embody the idea that “work is love made visible”. In 2018, F&W joined forces with the Nineveh Foundation to manage the conservation of more than 3,300 acres of land and water in the Lake Ninevah valley. People of any race, background, religion, sexual orientation, gender, or economic status are encouraged to apply to join our community as campers or staff.

We are looking for some folks who want to be counselors, who lead activities and games, are integral to building and supporting community at camp, and are role models for campers.  Our campers love their counselors, and great bonds are built among staff and campers over the summer.

We are also looking for some people who are interested in food and cooking, and to work in a team to provide delicious meals for campers and staff.  Our educational farm supplies some of our produce cooked in our kitchens.  

Room and board are included, and our housing is rustic.  For someone who wants to unplug and spend the summer in the beautiful Vermont woods, contact us to learn more!
