St Isidore Catholic Worker Farm was founded in January 2016. Our current work of mercy is to comfort the sorrowing.  We provide a weekend farm retreat environment with structured living that combines solitude with community, farm work with creativity and prayer with process. It is our desire to make St Isidore Farm a place of hospitality for all who need a place and time to process their grief.
