The summer of '23 is unfolding as a time of good prayer, good friends and edifying hard work.

Things are really getting busy on the farm.

Happy Easter to all our farm friends! Our Lord is risen - the reason for our hope. As we enter our second decade, we continue to welcome volunteers and visitors to the farm.

Ten years ago today, on February 28, 2013, Larry and John drove from the Lehigh Valley up to the Back Mountain and purchase 11 acres in Harveys Lake and the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker Farm was born.

Our New Year is off to an exciting start!

A Merry Christmas Season and many blessings for the New Year!

God is truly amazing - His grace flows abundantly on our ministry. We have had lots of visitors and made some great progress on our plans. 

What a great summer it’s been! After scaling back our work during COVID, we have come back strong and ready to grow in our mission. First, a recap of volunteering and farm events, then a look at some future plans for the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker Farm.

We are off to a wonderful start to the new season here at the farm. Most of the work right now is clean up from the winter, with a lot of downed trees and branches causing lots of debris in the pasture.

What a world we find ourselves in here in Spring of 2022! The past two years have been challenging, to say the very least.

Our growing season is off to a wonderful start!

We have a lot of catching up to do in this edition of our Latest News from the Farm. 

Spring brings life to the farm, with chickens, ducks, and pigs surrounding newly planted crops, and the next generation embracing the fiber arts.

No one was more happy to see the arrival of Spring than we were on the farm. It seemed like a long winter, lots of time to ponder and discern our next steps.

We're buying a barn! Thanks to the generosity of our GoatFundMe donors, we were able to put a downpayment on a metal barn to be installed in the Spring. Please help us reach our goal and pay the balance. 

Lots going on this fall on the farm! Brown Eggs Yarn, the hand-spun yarn shop that Carmina has been helping her friend Annette start up, had a booth at the Lehigh Valley Fiber Festival in September. It was a great event and the duo learned a lot about small business and the hand-spun yarn market. 

A former student of Larry's set up a campaign for us on GoFundMe - and called it Goat Fund Me! We thought that was awesome! She did a great job explaining what we are trying to do and where we would like to go. Please visit the page and learn about our hopes and dreams for the future of the farm.

Summer has come and gone. In spite of the extraordinarily wet weather, we managed to grow a few vegetables for the local food pantry in Lake-Lehman Township. Many thanks to Willow Haven Farm of New Tripoli, PA, for once again donating plants - tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, lettuce, melons, cucumbers, and cabbage., and to the Ide family for picking up and delivering the goods.
