Sky Farm Hermitage is the result of a very generous gift of land by

Mr. Norrbom to the late Fr. Dunstan Morrissey, a Benedictine hermit monk, who had been seeking a place of hermitage along the California Coast.

Fr. Dunstan saw the benefit of sharing this gift and on August 25, 1975, Sky Farm was incorporated as a non-profit, 501 (c) 3, so all donations are tax deductible.

With your support the Hermitage continues to offer spiritual renewal and retreat for people of all ages and backgrounds. Those who come here continually thank us for holding this sacred place of silence and making it available for retreat, but we realize it is only with your help and support that this is possible.

Over the years a Chapel was built, hermitages, a beautiful refectory/library, and all that you see in the photos. In the last six years efforts have been made to better insulate and fit a few of the hermitages with bathrooms and small kitchenettes. The fruit of these efforts is that these are now rarely without guests.

We hope to finish the floor in the chapel and repair one of the Hermitages called Eden and for this we need assistance. We also count on your support to sponsor retreat guests with limited means, keep up the grounds and feed the birds who now count on us.

Your contribution can be given for a special intention or in memory of a loved one. All donations are personally acknowledged, tax deductible and

make a difference that bears fruit in many lives by reviving a sense of peace and compassion in our world.
