We’re still rescuing.

The loss of Local Matters is and will be a devastating blow to the Columbus community. We are also super-grateful that we were able, with the support of their leadership, to find a safe landing-place to continue the work of CFR and Ro’s Kitchen, in the van and in the kitchen and beyond. More details to come, but we just wanted to reassure you all: we’re still rescuing.

We officially kicked off summer last night with all of our camp counselors and CITs (counselors in training) with a farm to table dinner, games, and a campfire under the stars! ✨

We’re beyond excited to welcome our first group of campers on Monday morning! So much love, planning, and hard work goes into creating a fun, safe, and memorable camp experience, and we are incredibly thankful for the amazing people who make it all possible.

We can’t wait for a summer full of adventure, laughter, learning, and unforgettable memories at the farm. Let the camp season begin! 💚
