Farms of the Good Shepherd
A non-profit teaching farm in the Catholic tradition
Discover God in Nature's Embrace
Our mission at the Farms of the Good Shepherd is to create the opportunity to grow closer to God in His created things; in His creatures; in the bounty of His soil, all of which are most accessible within the simple life modeled in a rural, agrarian setting.
Inspired by the sanctity and simplicity of monastic living and its tradition of Ora et Labora, we seek to form hearts—young and old—through hands-on experiences with farming, livestock, cooking from the harvest, and living in harmony with God’s creation.
