At Plainsong Farm and Ministry near Rockford, food and faith come together in ways that nourish both body and soul.

The Bible is a down-to-earth book. Genesis begins with God’s hands in the dirt. Revelation ends with God holding a sickle ready for harvest. And images from the farm abound on the pages in between. Ten of Joseph’s brothers find him in Egypt when they travel there to buy grain. Elisha is behind a plow pulled by oxen before he partners in prophecy with Elijah. Jesus tells a parable in which a man decides to use a little manure to give a barren fig tree another year to grow.
“The Bible is such an agrarian text that if you don’t grow up in that context, it almost seems unrelatable,” observes Mike Edwardson. “Plainsong Farm is a tangible way to live into some of the metaphors people read about in scripture on a weekly basis.”
