Starcross is a small independent community of lay people living quiet lives in the monastic tradition and offering encouragement and affirmation to gentle folk on all spiritual paths. Since 1986, we have been advocates for children in Sonoma County and throughout the world. Visit our website is to learn more about us and ways to participate in the activities and spiritual life of the community. We have planted 10 acres of olive on hillsides at Starcross in the hope that the olive oil we make in the future will help to support our community. We are dedicating the trees in the orchard to individuals as memorials to those who have died or in honor of the living. To dedicate an olive tree, please click here. Our primary means of support are our sales of Christmas wreaths and trays of dried fruit. Please click on our full-color brochure and order form for this year’s orders.
