The Land Team is beginning to collect tools, farm implements, and work vehicles for the Abbey. Particularly, we'd like to have a used 4x4 farm truck. If you'd like to donate some of these items to the Abbey, help us purchase them, or know where we could acquire them, please notify Daniel at daniel@churchofthelamb.org.

Abbeys were of significant importance in medieval society. They were centers of learning, storehouses or repositories of cultural and literary treasures, economic engines, innovative centers of agriculture, places of refuge, solace and pilgrimage, and they performed a significant civic function of providing social safety nets in the form of food, shelter and clothing to the poor.

A running list of work opportunities at Church of the Lamb’s property will live here. They may be completed as you have time and energy, and we have something for everyone, regardless of age or ability. If you’re interested in participating in any of the tasks below, contact Daniel Zimmerman at daniel@churchofthelamb.org.
