CVKH Blog: A Poem for Spring

The spring is coming
The fall went to bed
The day is much longer
The cows are out
The chickens say hallelujah!
And that is all

CVKH Blog: Year-long volunteer positions available

People with diverse backgrounds, skills and personal goals join our community for a year of service or for a lifetime, volunteering their time and energy; they live, work, learn and grow with us.

We currently have openings for Garden Apprentices and Service Volunteers. 

Garden Apprentices:  Immediate openings available.  We offer the opportunity for aspiring agrarians to gain experience in biodynamic, organic, and sustainable methods of agriculture and land stewardship in a social therapeutic setting together with adults with developmental disabilities.  Garden Apprentices receive strong “hands on” training by working alongside experienced farmers. In addition they receive a solid theoretical foundation in biodynamic and organic agriculture.

Service Volunteer or Short-Term Coworkers:  In the fall of each year, a group of volunteers from around the world join us for a year of service to support the work we do with adults who have developmental disabilities.  Service volunteers spend time working within a household, as well as in a land or craft workshop.  Whether you are looking for a volunteer experience during a “break” following training or college, or if it is time to reexamine your life’s direction, a year of service in Kimberton Hills will offer new inspirations as well as be a time to reflect and consider future life goals.

For more information about these opportunities, contact Craig Brown at 610-935-3963 or craig@camphillkimberton.org.

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

We asked and you answered. Why do you love Camphill Kimberton? Let us count the ways.....

 

• I visited 28 years ago and played music with Herta Hoy. I fell in love with Camphill, spent a year in Ringwood, three at Humans-Haus, and became a Waldorf teacher. That musical experience with Herta was very important. I love Kimberton!   -- Craig Thom

• It's a place of natural beauty! Here's a photo I took there last summer:  http://tinyurl.com/46melgl   -- Emma Peabody

• Camphill Village Kimberton Hills is a place where I have grown to appreciate the true meaning of community. I have been fortunate enough to have developed extraordinary friendships while offering hair and body care services for nearly 20 years. As an employee at Kimberton Whole Foods, I was able to work closely with the Camphill bakery, dairy, and assist folks with perfect job placement within the store. Last year, I was married in Rose Hall, fulfilling a life-long dream, clebrating in such a wonderful and truly spiritual space. Knowing Camphill has enriched my life in more ways that I can describe. I love you all.   -- Karen Izzi, Ph.D., the Peaceful Healer
  
  
  

•  Because my cousin Ina loves living there and I love Ina.  -- Debbie Chalfin

• One of the reasons why I love Kimberton Hills is the unexpected joy you find each day.  When I came into work this morning there was a lovely bouquet of flowers on my desk - someone here thought of me and thought I would enjoy them... and I do.  My guess is it was Charlene!   There is a lot of love and kindness here.   -- Bernadette Kovaleski
  
  
   

Thank you for your participation. It's good to be loved.
