Homemakers Camp is a yearly event held for women 18 years and older that focuses on the sharing of skills and handcrafts in a collaborative teaching environment.

Camp is typically held in the fall on Columbus Day weekend in Monticello Illinois, at the beautiful Allerton Park's 4-H Memorial Campgrounds.

Part of the fun each year is tying in crafts, activities and events with the theme picked from the year before. In the fall of 2026 we will be Crafting in the Islands and can’t wait to see you there!
