At Journey’s End Farm we share the joys and responsibilities of living on a small family farm. We produce healthy food for ourselves and others, while maintaining diverse habitat for our local wildlife. In all we do, we hope to promote the building of community, the love of the earth, and respect for all beings.
Journey’s End Farm Camp was founded in 1939 in Honeoye, NY, by Leon and Edith Allen, parents of Marie Allen Curtis. Following Marie's marriage to Ralph Curtis, the newlyweds eventually settled on the Curtis farm in Sterling, Pennsylvania. In 1960, they took on the directorship of Journey's End Farm Camp and moved it to the farm in Sterling. Ralph and Marie served as directors until 1987, when they passed the leadership to their sons, Tim and Carl, with Carl’s wife, Kristin, helping off-stage. Since Carl’s passing in 2002, co-Directors have included Chris Martin and Greg Elliott as well as Kristin, with Tim arriving from Monteverde, Costa Rica, to spend parts of each summer at camp. Tim was Director, in residence with his wife Helena, from 2010 - 2016. The 2017 season will see a transition to the next generation with Andrew Curtis (Carl and Kristin's son) as Director.
Journey’s End, both the farm and the camp, has been life-transforming for generations of children. Our second-generation campers number in the dozens. Each session we have several campers whose parents attended camp or worked here as counselors, and we’re starting to welcome third generation campers.
In 2021, we made the decision to transition away from summer camp and concentrate on food production.
