Tim Boatright
Tim has been supporting the Farm longer than most can remember. He is a brilliant artist that has created our logos, artwork, newsletters and brochures for us, just to name a few. He is selfless with his time and allows the Farm to be surrounded in the beauty of his creations.
One of the many projects he has helped us work on is the prayer garden seen below.

A huge thank you to Father Matt for coming to be with the community for a week. It is always a gift to have visiting Priests to help us celebrate the Sacraments and to help remind us even more deeply of the purpose of our mission here.
