Description

Journey?s End Farm Camp is 100 miles from NYC on the edge of the Poconos in Sterling, PA.  We are a tech-free residential camp for children 7 through 12.  Children participate in daily farm chores, especially animal care and gardening.  Much of our food is homegrown.  Campers build projects in woodshop and ceramics; explore the natural world; create games, make music, and go on hikes with the staff; and play in the fields, woods, and creeks. 

Drawing from Quaker values, Journey?s End emphasizes inclusion, simplicity, respect, and cooperation.  

Our maximum enrollment per session is 34, with a counselor to camper ratio of 1:3.

**And if you'd like to check out the camp, Journey's End is part of the annual Northeastern PA Maple Tour, and will be welcoming visitors to The Journey's End sap house on March 17 & 18 from 10 - 4 while the auction is still live!. There is also a pancake breakfast a mile north of us on Saturday only from 8:30 AM to noon.

If you are new to Journey's End, this is also a time when you can take a
tour of the farm camp. See the bunk areas and bathrooms, the dining room
and ceramics room, meet the animals and those of us who live here
year-round. We will have two former campers on hand to show you around, and
we hope you'll also visit us in the sap house so you can sample some maple
syrup and we can say hello!
