Glenmary Farm

For over 40 years, the Glenmary Farm and Glenmary Home Missioners have been an integral part of life in Lewis County. The Glenmary Group Volunteer Program, based at the Glenmary Farm, has brought thousands of high school and college students to Lewis County for a week of missionary service.

While service is the foundation of the Farm program, it also strives to develop community and to deepen faith through the context of shared experiences. Volunteers come not only to serve but also to learn about the rich culture and traditions present in this Appalachia region. It aims to broaden volunteers' understanding of the causes of poverty, oppression and injustice—and how their life choices can impact these issues.
