Explore the Morley Farm



After touring Historic Kirtland, visit the Isaac Morley Farm—just one mile east of Kirtland.

The Isaac Morley farm became a gathering place for Church members who came to Kirtland. Joseph Smith lived at the farm for about six months, and many meetings were held in a nearby schoolhouse. Here Joseph administered church affairs and received many revelations. The fourth general conference of the Church, in which the first High Priests of the Church were ordained, was held at the farm. Visitors can take a guided tour of the grounds during summer months (May through October) and learn of the historical events that took place here.
