People
At every turn, God has led us to creative and wise souls ready to walk with us. The challenge we all share is to trust in God to help us found, build, and maintain a place to shield the joyous. We feel called to help one another live lives of deeper baptismal identity, stronger rhythms of hope, intentional care of creation, and broader sacramental imagination.

Residents
While Lisa and Tricia continue to split their time between the seminary in Virginia and the farm in New Jersey, three full-time residents are holding down the fort. Katie, Lydia, and Amy live and work together with daily guidance and assistance from Lisa and Tricia wherever they are that day.

Helpers
Stone Bridge Farm has always been a village — and has always needed a village for its care and keeping. Family and friends of our residents, old and new, pitch in on projects both urgent and joyful, and we would not be here without their help and companionship along the way.

Communities
The five residents of Stone Bridge Farm are Episcopalians who understand this farm and our labors on it as an offering to God, by serving the communities to which God has called us. The farm is located within the parish bounds of Christ Episcopal Church in Newton, which is a constituent congregation of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark, and the boundaries of our property stretch across two townships and counties — Stillwater Township in Sussex County and Frelinghuysen Township in Warren County.
