Girl Scouts Workshops
Looking for a unique and memorable experience for your Scouts? Lollypop Farm is proud to offer workshops that give scouts hands-on, behind-the-scenes experiences centered on the Girl Scouts of the USA and Scouts BSA badge requirements.
Daisy Scouts - Birdbath Award:
In this workshop, scouts will learn to care for animals and themselves through creative experiences. Scouts will learn that animals have the same needs and feelings as we do! We will learn how animals communicate with one another and how we can communicate with our pets. Scouts will tour Lollypop Farm to learn how the needs of different animals are met.
Brownie Scouts - Pets Badge:
In this workshop, scouts will learn the basics of pet care and the responsibilities that come with owning a pet. We will learn what our pets need to be happy, healthy, and safe. Scouts will create a budget for pet care and practice grooming techniques. We will tour Lollypop Farm and see in person how animals communicate with one another and with us.
Junior Scouts - Animal Habitats Badge:
In this workshop, scouts will learn about wild animals and their habitats. We will explore what an adequate habitat requires for an animal to thrive and how we can help protect these environments. Scouts will create bird feeders that provide food and nesting materials for wild birds. We will tour Lollypop Farm and learn how our pets’ needs are met by their habitats.
Cadette Scouts - Animal Helper Badge:
In this workshop, scouts will explore the connection between humans and animals and how we help each other to thrive. Scouts will learn about amazing animal heroes and the many ways that animals enrich our lives every day. We will tour Lollypop Farm and explore how rescued animals help their humans.
Senior Scouts - Voice for Animals Badge:
In this workshop, Scouts will learn to understand global animal issues and what they can do to help. We will explore a variety of problems that animals face and the efforts being made to address them. We will tour Lollypop Farm and discuss the specific issues affecting shelter animals, as well as what Lollypop Farm does to address them.
