Quick: name a farm that works with developmentally disabled adults AND is biodynamic.

If you guessed Providence or Alderlea Farms, you're half right. If you said Glenora Farm, then you already know this gem just 5 minutes west of Duncan. One of 100 Camphill Communities worldwide, Glenora Farm is a residential community where people with developmental disabilities live, learn, and work together with caregivers, sharing in a culturally rich and productive environment.

Duncan United Church rings with joyous music during Sunday’s Bells Of Easter concert-benefit.

The event features the acclaimed Glenora Farm Handbells Ensemble that will use proceeds to buy a higher-octave set of 12 handbells and stretch the range of songs played under director Annette Lampson.

The set of U.S.-made bells sells for about $3,800.

The new bells resemble those used by the ensemble at the recent Cowichan Music Festival.

Lilipoh Magazine, Special Edition: Celebrating 50 Years of Camphill in North America (December 2010)

From an old family estate in the north of Scotland the path of Camphill has led to many places, some with ideal houses ready to welcome the children or adults without whom our work would have no meaning. In some cases, a community has started in a small farm house … once even in a post office … and new houses have been built around the existing structures. Here on Vancouver Island, right on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, we have had the task and privilege of creating something literally from the ground upwards, surrounded by a young land of mountains, evergreens, and rivers, some of it decimated by huge logging operations and some of it still untouched.
