| History of Corbenic Camphill Community
|
|
Corbenic was founded in 1978 as a training college.
The property
was bought from Murthly Estate by Thomas and Anke Weisz.
They were members of the Camphill community in Aberdeen and
were responding to a need to find new homes for young adults
who had outgrown the Camphill Schools.
|
Corbenic was
initially a College for Further Education. In 1990 Corbenic bought some more land from a neighbouring farmer and with that, the care of the land and the animals became a more prominent part of the community. Lochran and Iona were build in 1992. In 1994, due to a shortage of places for adults and the wish of many students to remain in Corbenic, it changed its aim and became an Adult Community. |
 Enjoying an outing in 1982 The woodwork shop was build in 1997, and the garden workshop was extended in 2002.

|
In 1995 Corbenic Camphill Community, together with Ochil Tower Schools and Camphill Blair Drummond formed the Camphill Central Scotland Trust. The properties of all three communities are held within this Trust. |
