Non-GMO X2: Neither Genetically Modified nor Gender Modified!
Not only is Holy Cross Farm completely in accord with the God-Given nature of our produce, feeds, and livestock, but much more importantly we are in accord with--indeed celebrate--the human person's God-given nature as "male and female He created them," as we seek to serve Our Lord Jesus Christ in all things.
As such all guests are asked to dress and comport themselves properly as per God-given gender and Christian modesty.
The following specifics on female dress are suggestions based on the propriety of manifesting the feminine nature and charism. The specifics of dress and fashion is an art rather than a science, and thus admits of some variance, though there are clear proscriptions and prescriptions. In any case, Catholic women especially today should strive towards maintaining the traditional Christian ideal of feminine dress; not considering what is proscribed but going beyond what is prescribed to the very celebration of the feminine nature and charism.
Women: According to traditional standards of Christian modesty, the prescribed propriety in feminine dress essentially entails the wearing of full and at least calf-length skirts and full blouses with high necklines and sleeves at least elbow length. Note well, that it isn't the proverbial “wearing of pants” that is improper for a woman, but rather the wearing of them without a covering skirt. Thus if necessitated by weather or activity pants or leggings are properly worn underneath skirts.
Men: Christian men should choose whenever possible to wear full trousers, full shirts, and a derriere covering jacket in relatively somber colors. Here a special note on the masculine jacket, which is for the man what the skirt is for the woman, is in order. The wearing of a suit jacket or sports coat (or even a second untucked long shirt if the jacket proves too cumbersome) provides an outer draping garment that is sartorially proper. In Western and other civilizations full dress for a man has always included an outer-garment, be it the cloak over the robe (as seen in Our Lord's time) or the modern suit or sports jacket.
