It was 1940 in Scotland when Karl Koenig, M.D., founded the international Camphill movement.  Today Camphill includes over 100 independent communities in over 20 countries on four continents.  These communities value service, sharing, spiritual nourishment, and recognition of each person's gifts offering a model of renewal for the wider community.  Camphill communities include children, youth and adults with developmental disabilities and those with societal and personal vulnerabilities.

 

Camphill Soltane provides post-secondary education for young adults with disabilities and meaningful careers in a variety of fields for adults with disabilities.  Be sure to visit Soltane Breads and Spreads in Phoenixville, our first off-campus workshop!

 

Camphill Special School is the only Camphill community for children in North America.  This community nurtures the minds, bodies and spirits of children and youth with intellectual and developmental disability through education and therapy in extended family living.

 

Camphill Village Kimberton Hills is a farming and crafting intentional community that lives and works with adults with developmental disabilities.

Save the Date for next year's ride: Sunday, October 13, 2013!
