Our address is: 12381 Downs Rd., Pineville, NC
We are official FAITHLEAPERS and need others to help join us in the new adventure. We are super excited and optimistic as we know this is where God has lead us and My Farm Camps! Some things you may not know; We’ve been operating My Farm Camps, in one form or another, for over 17 years now with a brief departure to help design, “rebrand” and launch new programming for Camp Harrison for 2 years. Each year at My Farm Camps, we get the chance to help, educate and encourage kids by using animals, agriculture and arts educational programming to share the love of Jesus Christ.
The camp program is all about building relationships and educating kids on the pure and simple joys of farm life. We are all about animals, agriculture and arts- animal care, education and handling, riding horses, gardening, farm-to-table creations, arts and crafts, hiking, hard work, and mostly fun.
We bought Sugar Creek Farm in 2016 – 21 acres in Pineville, which now serves as the permanent home to My Farm Camps Experience. (This is the Non-Profit) We had a BIG dream for this location, which is accompanied by a big budget. We have grown by roughly 100 campers per year for the past five years, and 2016 was the first year where I had to turn people away. Many of these kids absolutely need this type of programming as it just simply does not exist anywhere else in the greater Charlotte area. I simply do not want to ever turn away kids due to a lack of space! I have the ability to serve more, just not the space. That’s the reason for the move. Also, with all of the development that surrounded us in Ballantyne, a lot of the trails and pastures we have been using are no longer available.
The new location gives us all the room we need to grow and to continue to thrive. Our on-going operations will cover all of our annual expenses, but we need help in building the infrastructure and continue to support kids that want to come to camp but cannot afford it.
Here is a new video we shot while at the new Pineville property! We have finished building our first 2 phases and cannot wait for Phase 3!
I would humbly ask that you consider helping support this vision in any way you can; connecting me to your inner circle as well as appropriate leaders/friends/foundations who can make decisions regarding financial support. Also, if you have any other kind of ideas to generate support please let me know; we have moved and built the camp in its new Pineville, NC location in order to serve more kids and families.
