Our Common Home Farms
works to care for our common home in three ways: to provide nutrient-dense, locally grown, and ethically produced food within our community, especially for those in most need; to educate on sustainable agricultural practices, the relationship between good food and good health, and the responsibilities inherent within the communion of each individual with the human family and the natural world; and to build climate change resilience in the areas of food production, the creation of habitat, and the mitigation of climate change processes.
EDUCATION
We strive to educate on sustainable agricultural practices. Farms will offer education on agricultural methods, the relationship of faith and values to working the soil and building community, and how to extend local food production beyond our own fields and hoop-houses.
GOOD FOOD AND GOOD HEALTH
A major aim or Our Common Home Farms is to help address the suffering of the many fellow community members in need. Our Common Home Farms will both help feed the poor through donations to local food banks and community food kitchens.
NATURAL WORLD
We have responsibilities inherent within the communion of each individual with the human family and the natural world; and to build climate change resilience in the areas of food production, the creation of habitat, and the mitigation of climate change processes
