Welcome to the sizzling, sun-kissed state of Florida, where the oranges are as vibrant as the sunsets, and the alligators are grumpier than a gnome without his pointy hat. Florida isn't just known for its sandy beaches, enchanting theme parks, or a certain mouse named Mickey, no siree! It's also home to some of the coolest, bravest, most farm-tastic kids this side of the Mississippi! Meet Farmer Fiddlesticks, the funniest, lanky scarecrow you'll ever lay eyes on. He's got a pumpkin for a head, a straw hat that's two sizes too big, and a laugh that sounds like a duck hiccuping. And boy, does he have some tales to share about the Florida farm kids! These aren't your average, run-of-the-stream children. Oh no, these are real-life, knee-deep in compost, tomato-wrestling champions. They can milk a cow faster than you can say 'moo', and grow a watermelon bigger than Farmer Fiddlesticks' hat. They're up at the crack of dawn, out in the fields, battling the blazing Florida sun, while the rest of us are still dreaming of pancakes. And oh, the adventures they have! From corn mazes that turn into secret portals, to carrot patches that sprout rainbow-colored vegetables, there's never a dull day on the Florida farms. They might even tell you about that one time, they had a tug-of-war with a stubborn donkey over a bundle of hay. So if you think Florida is all about sipping juice by the beach or riding rollercoasters, think again. Because in the heart of this tropical paradise, Farmer Fiddlesticks and these fantastic farm kids are cocreating a world of fun, laughter, and unforgettable agricultural adventures.

For over 50 years, Frontier Camp has been dedicated to making disciples of Jesus by sharing God’s Word amidst the beauty of His creation. Since our founding in 1969, we’ve been licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services and are proudly accredited by the American Camping Association. We’re also a member of the Christian Camping and Conference Association. Our mission is to use Christian camping and outdoor recreation as a means to support local churches in fulfilling the Great Commission—evangelizing people of all ages and discipling believers toward deeper maturity in Christ. Frontier Camp offers a dual ministry: during the summer, we host a 10-week youth camp, and throughout the rest of the year, we serve as a retreat facility for churches and like-minded religious organizations. Whether through summer camps or retreats, our goal remains the same: to expose people to Christ and encourage their spiritual growth through His Word and by reflecting His character in everything we do. While we provide top-notch recreation and exciting programming, the heart of our camp is the spiritual impact, rooted in the truth of God’s inerrant Word.
