    • Sounds like you need a co-op of the local trads to get together occasionally and help people set up their garden and accomplish any other big works (fixing/ building things, occasional garden weeding/pest control/harvesting when the work piles up, ect. I'd be happy to tour around and help in such ways if I had the resources, but I'm just 1 guy. When are people going to learn that getting to heaven and raising children is a group effort that goes beyond each individual household. There may be some single parishioners who are well off money wise if they could live cheaply and do their part of sharing what they can. We need priests to get fired up and preach on this to the point people get serious about helping each other.

    Yes, it would be a wonderful thing if more priests would get fired up about the Catholic Land movement. But many trad priests are already so busy with just providing the sacraments for the Faithful.

    Back in the 1920's and 1930's, when the Catholic Land movement started in the UK, both priests and bishops and even popes were on board with supporting a Catholic Land movement, but then WW2 but an end to all of that. It was interrupted to the extent that it never really got going again, unfortunately.

    • That’s going to be a nice time had by all. 

    Yes, World War II changed much globally.  And it wasn’t for the good.

    • The Church & Farming, the last work of Fr. Denis Fahey, C.S.Sp., is a must-read.
