What is Red Hill Farm?

Red Hill Farm, owned by the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia is one of the sisters’ many environmental initiatives. Red Hill Farm is a six-acre Community Supported Agriculture farm in its 17th year of production. It provides produce for 120 members as well as for the Sisters of St. Francis.

The farm has always been managed by utilizing organic practices. We build healthy soil with the use of cover crops and compost. Weeds are managed with mechanical cultivation and hand weeding, and pests are managed through crop rotation and the use of floating row covers.
