At Campcraft Outdoors, we're inspired by the golden age of camping and woodcraft, a time when God’s creation served as a sanctuary for reflection and renewal. The 1840s through the 1970s marked a unique era in American history when warriors returned home from the various theatres of battle to find solace and healing in the wild spaces of their homeland, spaces we believe reflect the beauty of the Lord’s handiwork. This recreation spurred innovation, creating the outdoor industry we cherish today.
As a family-owned Christian small business, we’ve taken what we’ve learned from these outdoor pioneers and applied it to the gear we craft with care. Guided by the values of stewardship and excellence, we use strong materials, keep things as light as possible, and design with multifunctionality in mind. Nearly every piece of gear—whether a hand-waxed bag or a hand-forged knife—is crafted by hand, with someone pouring a bit of their God-given skill and heart into each unique product.
We create because we’re blessed with the ability to do so, we make because it brings us joy to honor the Creator through our work, and our only competition is ourselves as we strive to grow in our craft. We do it the old-fashioned way, not because it’s easy, but because it’s proven, enduring, and true—just like the faith that guides us.

A sought-after expert, Jason has collaborated with National Geographic Television, prepped contestants for high-stakes survival shows like Naked & Afraid, Alone, and Outlast, and hosted a faith-driven outdoor series on WBNA-TV21.

At the same time, his contributions to ministry textbooks shape the next generation of spiritual leaders.
