Forming Formed: 2008
An Apple of His Eye Abbey
Palmyra, New York,
United States
 We are working to establish a community dedicated to serving the Lord, each other, and the community, with the precepts in the book of Acts as a foundation. We are looking for people who desire a rural, agrarian lifestyle. Our group is considering the formation of a CSA or food co-op to sustain the community financially. Currently we have a hobby farm on five acres; it has been subdivided so that another dwelling can be built.
