Christina, a mother of two, harbors a deep passion for farming, her faith, and making a positive impact in the world. Since childhood, she has dreamed of living and working on a farm teeming with animals. Her journey through numerous life challenges, fortified by her faith, led to the establishment of Soaring Chicken Farm Ministry. She advocates the strength and solace faith can offer in tough times and encourages others to discover hope and significance in their trials, bolstering their resolve to persevere. Christina delights in guiding others back to God through His creations, illuminating the intentional design behind all things.
Nicole, a former homeschooling mom, now serves as a camp instructor and teacher at Soaring Chicken Farm. She holds a certification as a master herbalist and flower essences specialist from the Trinity School of Natural Health, bringing a wealth of experience in working with children, plants, and animals. She believes that God has provided everyone with unique gifts and talents, and she is passionate about helping her students discover and utilize their divine gifts for His glory. Her teaching philosophy centers on making learning enjoyable and inspiring students to embrace lifelong learning. When not teaching, Nicole can be found at the beach or indulging in her favorite outdoor activities, such as gardening, hiking, taking road trips, and spending quality time with family and friends. Having honed her life skills while living and raising four children in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Nicole is eager to pass on her knowledge.

Caitlin is a joy and life bringer everywhere she goes. She is a champion of people, a connector, a gatherer and an encourager. Caitlin is passionate about seeing people become rooted in Kingdom identity (as beautiful sons and daughters) and released in Kingdom authority (through joyful obedience and living a surrendered life). She loves prayer and worship nights with friends, random healthy foods, beach walks before sunrise, and kombucha. She has a high value for fun, connection, beauty, wonder, intentionality, play, and freedom.
Caitlin met Christina in 2021 and they quickly became friends! (How can you not?!?) She has enjoyed helping in different capacities with the farm ministry. This year Caitlin started working for EQUIP 210 as the Kingdom Equipping Specialist and considers it a deep joy and honor to join the team at the Soaring Chicken Farm campus as she gets to love on our students this year!
