Welcome to Friends of Phillips Farm

For over a decade, volunteers have helped build and maintain many parts of Virgil Phillips Farm County Park. Longtime friends of the farm have created a nonprofit to better organize these efforts and related fund-raising. This website showcases current and past activities and volunteer projects, coming events, and what's on the horizon for "friends" to do at Phillips Farm.  Join us!

Do your kids enjoy summer outdoor adventure?  Day campers at our Phillips Farm Nature Camp discover all that nature has to offer as they hike the trails, explore the pond, and learn about local wildlife. Songs, games, and outdoor adventures make this camp a summer highlight.  Two five-day camps -- sign up for one or both!
