Mission Statement

The mission of St. Francis Farm Community is to live a sustainable life based on the Gospels and on Catholic Worker principles as an alternative to the consumer culture.  The community provides practical assistance, prayerful presence and a place for reflection to help others simplify their lives.

The grace of God, the generosity of supporters and the bounty of the land provide the foundation for the community.  By their commitment and unpaid labor the full-time residents maintain buildings, work the land and welcome visitors.  Guests volunteer their labor and share the simple gifts of the farm: work and prayer, discussion and recreation.
