Deep in the heart of the corn cob kingdom, known as the magnificent state of IL, thousands of mini-farmers rise with the dawn. They roll up their plaid-shirt sleeves, don their sun hats, and charge into the fields with a determination as sturdy as the mightiest John Deere tractor. These aren't your average kids. No, sir! They are the soil superheroes of IL, cultivating the earth with their tiny, dirt-covered hands and enormous, fun-filled hearts. Among these mini-farmers, Billy the Beanstalk is a legend. Standing tall at a whole four feet and three inches, Billy is renowned for his ability to grow the crunchiest corn, the greenest beans, and the most enormous pumpkins you've ever seen. But that's not all. Billy has a secret tool, a magical red bandana named Ruby, which he swears gives him super-growing powers. With Ruby wrapped around his head, Billy can make a tiny seed sprout into a towering stalk overnight. In the fantastic fields of IL, days are filled with laughter and friendly competitions. Who can pick the most apples, dig up the biggest carrots, or find the weirdest shaped potato? Billy and his friends turn every task into a game, making the fields echo with giggles and shouts of triumph. At night, they gather around crackling bonfires, roasting marshmallows, telling tales of giant tomato plants, and dreaming about the next day's farming adventure. The state of IL is more than just a place on the map, it's a land where kids can explore, learn, and grow alongside the plants they nurture. They're not only budding farmers, they're the tiny ambassadors of agriculture, and with their spirit, every day is a funny, muddy, sun-kissed journey in the world of farming.

The Amstutz family has been working hard to create an experience that combines our love of nature and the outdoors with a desire to share our knowledge of sustainable farming and animal care. We have a large variety of animals – horses, chickens, pigs, cows, turkeys, sheep, and goats – and we take great pride in caring for them. We also have acres of vegetable gardens, an outdoor kitchen, a playground, and a nature trail. The Amstutz family has put their imagination and hard work into creating The Country Experience – a 34 acre farm located in the heart of rural Ohio. The Country Experience is a summer sleepaway camp, but it is also a place for school groups and teachers to experience hands-on learning, a destination for families to get away and relax, and a home to delicious wood-fired pizza. The Amstutz family is passionate about providing a unique experience that combines their love of nature and the outdoors with sustainable farming and animal care. Visitors to The Country Experience can meet and interact with horses, chickens, pigs, cows, turkeys, sheep, and goats, explore acres of vegetable gardens, and take a stroll along the nature trail. Plus, there is an outdoor kitchen and playground for even more fun and fresh air.
