Farming is often perceived as a dirty, lowly, and undesirable job. The Faith and Farming programme seeks to encourage farmers by highlighting and learning from the many farmers in scripture. We learn about farming through our own experiences and by talking to farmers, so that we can provide helpful resources to encourage and bless them. Workshop participants will be introduced to farmers and farming in scripture and will explore how their faith can influence their farming practices.
