    In this episode we’re joined by Alice from The Mustard Seed Farm in the Ames, Iowa region and Mary Kay from St. Isidore Farm in Southwest Wisconsin.

Rev Dr Sarah ,

Awesome intro to an amazing organization

My life converged with the Catholic Worker movement during college at the end of the 80s. Out of curiosity I typed their name into the podcast search and found Theo and Lydia! So thankful to meet and hear about workers around the world, especially the interview with Joanne Kennedy.
