Circle T Ranch is dedicated to providing an environment for youth to create a lifelong respect and understanding of animals and the earth we all share.
Each camp day begins with feeding all the farm animals while focusing on the unique needs that each animal requires. Each day, we learn and discuss sustainable and ethical practices for raising livestock. Through these lessons, campers gain knowledge on caring for the land and the animals. This knowledge provides a deep understanding and appreciation for our food and environment.
At camp, we focus on kindness and teamwork all week long. Our extensive list of fun games and activities immerse youth in what it means to be a true cowboy or cowgirl!

Meet the directors
Justin and Tabby Tomlinson are the brother and sister duo that direct Farm Camp!
Since graduating college, the 4th generation of Circle T Ranch have made it their mission to share the ranch with the urban youth of Charlotte, NC. In the ever growing city of Charlotte, Justin and Tabby are aware that many children never have had the opportunity to be exposed to farming and ranching. Justin and Tabby are aiming to bridge this gap.
Tabby Tomlinson
Tabby attended Eastern New Mexico University earning her Bachelor's Degree in Elementary and Special Education. Tabby attended ENMU on a Rodeo scholarship. Tabby grew up on Circle T Ranch, where she acquired all of her knowledge about farming and ranching. Tabby has combined her passions for horses, ranching, and teaching by directing Farm & Ranch Camp. Her education background is the foundation for developing individualized approaches for teaching future generations about farming and ranching.
Justin Tomlinson
Justin earned his degree in Business and Administration. Justin has competed in rodeo throughout his life and is a current competitor in the team roping and calf roping. Justin has dedicated his life to raising livestock sustainably and ethically. Since completing college, Justin has founded Circle T Ranch as an official business. Justin raises cattle, sheep, goats, and chickens. Through Justin, the community is provided with accessible farm raised eggs, beef, pork, and lamb. Aside from raising livestock, Justin is also passionate about giving younger generations the knowledge of where their food comes from and the ranching practices it takes to raise healthy food.
