| Overview |
Fiacre Gardens Microfarm is a small, multi-campus organic farm in the Rochester NY area, and a small Catholic Worker agronomic university inspired by the teachings of Peter Maurin. We are associated with 2 CW communities -- the St. Joseph’s House of Hospitality, and Bethany House, both in Rochester. The hope is to build the microfarm business to the point that it can sustain a small intentional community of PRAYING FARMERS in a simple lifestyle with a healthily-balanced routine. That community would set out to grow enough surplus food to help our sister CW Houses, their guests, suburban food pantries, and other inner city meal programs enjoy local produce in a sustainable fashion.
