Welcome to Lamppost Farm ...
Where Culture and Agriculture Meet
Named after the lamppost in the Chronicles of Narnia, Lamppost Farm is an entry-point into a new world where adventures unfold beyond the bounds of imagination, animals "talk", winter warms into spring, and character forms in relationship to the Great Lion.
Lamppost Farm exists to provide meaningful learning opportunities by engaging in purposeful and productive work, contagious relationships, and the celebration of "good ordinary food". Our goal is to use agriculture and its fruit to build individuals and groups in deeper relationship with themselves, one another, God, and God's creation. Whether raising and processing chickens; growing, making and canning fresh salsa; milking the cow; or turning logs into lumber then into beautiful furniture; experiences at Lamppost Farm enable guestss the chance to see with their eyes, hear with their ears, explore with their hands, and understand with their heart. Ultimately, these encounters are to promote healing, hope-building, and a sense of home in the people of God.
Take the risk. Step through the Wardrobe. We’ll meet you at the Lamppost!

“If God intended man to live on bread, why didn’t he make a bread tree? And the answer is that, in fact, God could have created a bread tree that produced crusty loaves of bread, but he prefers to offer us grain and invite us to buy a field and plant the seed. He prefers that we till the soil while he sends the rain. He prefers that we harvest the crop while he sends the sunshine. He prefers that we grind the grain and knead it and bake it while he gives us air in our lungs and strength in our arms. Why? Because he would rather we become partners with him in creation. Of course, God could simply supply our every need and solve our every problem. But our God invites us into a creative partnership with him.”
- Alan Hirsch “The Shaping of Things to Come”
"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you. Many are the woes of the wicked, but the Lord's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him." - Psalm 32:8-10
