The international Camphill movement consists of more than 100 communities in 22 countries. Camphill continues to work to create communities in which children, youth, and adults with developmental disabilities can live, learn, and work with others in healthy social relationships based on mutual care and respect. There are currently 15 Camphill Village communities in North America.

Camphill Village Minnesota is located on a 500-acre biodynamic farm ten miles north of Sauk Centre in Central Minnesota. People live together family-style in seven large homes. Everyone shares in the responsibilities of life in the community.

The Village has a strong agricultural component made up of farming and gardening. Craft work includes weaving, woodworking, and the arts as well as a licensed processing kitchen and bakery that provide for the needs of the Village and goods that are sold in the surrounding area.

Life in the Village revolves around the cycles of nature, with festivals marking the changing seasons. Plays, concerts, lectures and continuing education add depth and color to the fabric of the community.

Camphill Village Minnesota is part of a worldwide movement that began in Scotland by Dr. Karl König just before World War II. The work of Camphill is based on the teachings of Rudolf Steiner, the Austrian scientist, philosopher and educator who also inspired Waldorf education.
