About the Property

Twin Locust Farm is a Catholic-owned 75-acre property nestled into the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, only a few hundred yards from Shenandoah National Park. The property includes a stream, a catch-and-release fish pond, miles of private hiking trails, a mountain with about 1,000ft of elevation gain, a horse barn, and the 1938 main house.

Visit, and enter into a sacred rhythm of peace.

About the Farmhouse
