Blessed Sacrament Farm
Blessed Sacrament Farm is an opportunity for our community, as well as other Catholics, to reconnect to the earth God created for us and to have an opportunity to have a hand in raising food for ourselves and for those around us.
In our modern age, so much of our food is either processed or comes from far away that we have very little connection to the farmers and families that feed us. The Roman Catholic Church has and continues to value agricultural life and culture. The Church’s liturgical year is very much connected to the natural cycle of seasons and intimately linked to the agricultural year.
We pray that our farm is not only a blessing to our community but to the wider village of Concho and the Catholic Community of the White Mountains. If you find yourself in Concho, please stop by and see us; we would be glad to give you a tour of the farm.
If you would like to know more about what we provide from what we grow and raise, please email us! May Christ the good shepherd and Saint Isidore, the patron of Farmers, be with you!
