KTC kids come from homeless shelters, refugee centers, and low-income neighborhoods.
More than 7000 children have participated since the program began.

KTC takes place on 1750 acres of woods, fields and streams south of Nashville on Tennessee’s Highland Rim, and is hosted by The Farm Community, founded in 1971 on the principles of nonviolence and respect for the earth. The Farm has been the home for KTC since 1986.
