Covenant Pathways farm (Spirit Farm) was developed to be a living example of how we can recover and reclaim traditional farming and spiritual practices, along with modern practices, to establish resiliency in our way of life, reducing the dependency on the very food system that is harming us. Spirit Farm continues to develop the demonstration farm that uses all organic practices, including microbiological composting, to heal the hard high desert southwestern soil. Our mission is to generate opportunities that impact individuals and communities with Native traditions that attach the human spirit to the Earth. In addition, we provide additional opportunities for growers to increase the quantity and quality of their produce, as well as use less water, which is a critical step when growing food in our climate.
