CAMPHILL NOTTAWASAGA
Located on beautiful farmland Ontario's rural Essa Township, Camphill Nottawasaga encompasses 280 acres of pastures, forest, tilled land and wooded ravines. In this setting are five houses, a large barn, a fabric workshop, a woodworking shop, extensive vegetable gardens and a greenhouse, and a large community centre with an auditorium, library and chapel.
Our work is to care for each other, our homes, our gardens and our land. We share this work with each other, each one according to his or her wishes and capabilities. In our houses,co-worker families and assistants live together with up to four adults with disabilities. Each family circle is unique depending on its members. Out of the strong support of this family, individuals can work in the community, make friends, and find ways to contribute their talents to the wider community. The Christian festivals throughout the year provide the content for many social and artistic activities. We also encourage individual and group study, therapies, outings, recreation and hobbies.
The aim of Camphill is to build a vital community life that offers each person the conditions for healing, growth and renewal.
