In 'Romance of a Church Farmhouse', Robinson details the inspired establishment of the 'Church Farm' (Canaan Cooperative Stock Company) in the Kanab area. The farm was specifically designated to provide beef and dairy for the laborers building the St. George Temple. Robinson describes the 'remarkable providence' in how the cattle and resources were sustained in a harsh desert environment, ensuring the temple workers never went without, which she characterizes as a divine mandate fulfilled through the faith of the local settlers.
