Isidore the Labourer, also known as Isidore the Farmer Spanish: San Isidro Labrador 19th Century Mexican Retablo #173Isidore the Labourer, also known as Isidore the Farmer. Spanish: San Isidro Labrador (c. 1070 15 May 1130), was a Spanish Farmworker known for his Piety toward the Poor and Animals. He is the Patron saint of Farmers, and of the City of Madrid.

  • Isidore the Labourer, also known as Isidore the Farmer. Spanish: San Isidro Labrador (c. 1070 – 15 May 1130), was a Spanish Farmworker known for his Piety toward the Poor and Animals. He is the Patron saint of Farmers, and of the City of Madrid.
  • Isidore was born in Madrid, around year 1070 or 1082, to poor devout parents, and was christened Isidore after name of their Patron, St. Isidore of Seville. In 1083 or 1085, the troops of Alfonso VI of León and Castile conquered Madrid from the Muslim Taifa of Toledo. Isidore spent his life as a hired hand in the service of the wealthy Madrilenian landowner, Juan de Vargas, on a farm in the city's vicinity.
  • Isidore married Maria Torribia, known as Santa María de la Cabeza in Spain; she has never been Canonized, pending confirmation by Pope Francis. Isidore and Maria had one son. On one occasion, their son fell into a deep well, and at the Prayers of his parents, the water of the well is said to have risen miraculously to the level of the ground, bringing the child with it. In Thanksgiving, Isidore and Maria then vowed sexual abstinence and lived in separate houses. Their son later died in his youth.
  • Isidore died on 15 May 1130, at his birthplace close to Madrid, although the only official source places his death in the year 1172.
  • Miracle stories

    St Isidore and St. Maria
    In the morning before going to work, Isidore would usually attend Mass at one of the churches in Madrid. One day, his fellow farm workers complained to their master that Isidore was always late for work in the morning. Upon investigation the master found Isidore at prayer while an angel was doing the ploughing for him.

    On another occasion, his master saw an angel ploughing on either side of him, so that Isidore's work was equal to that of three of his fellow field workers. Isidore is also said to have brought back to life his master's deceased daughter, and to have caused a fountain of fresh water to burst from the dry earth to quench his master's thirst.

    One snowy day, when going to the mill with wheat to be ground, he passed a flock of wood-pigeons scratching vainly for food on the hard surface of the frosty ground. Taking pity on the poor animals, he poured half of his sack of precious wheat upon the ground for the birds, despite the mocking of witnesses. When he reached the mill, however, the bag was full, and the wheat, when it was ground, produced double the expected amount of flour.

    Isidore's wife, Maria, always kept a pot of stew on the fireplace in their humble home as Isidore would often bring home anyone who was hungry. One day he brought home more hungry people than usual. After she served many of them, Maria told him that there simply was no more stew in the pot. He insisted that she check the pot again, and she was able to spoon out enough stew to feed them all.

      Quality is good considering low cost.

      Good quality for an inexpensive salt/pepper grinder. Works fine and should last a reasonable time

      Looks nice and seems to work well, but the black retaining ring randomly fell out.

      The pepper grinder looks nice and initially functioned well as expected. However, as at least 9 other reviewers have noted experiencing, within 2 weeks of purchase and after very minimal usage, the black retaining ring around the grinder cone & adjustment knob just fell out when I was using the grinder, which was disappointing and indicative of poor design or construction for this part. After some research & experimentation, I was able to pop the ring back into place using needle-nose pliers (you just need something hard and narrow to push and flex the ring a bit, not necessarily pliers). I'm hoping that this is not a harbinger of other problems to come. Otherwise it's a nice grinder.

      Not Overly Large and Easy to Use
      Color: Silver1, Color: Silver1
      I’ve been looking for a salt grinder for a long time. I was hoping to find something small—closer to the disposable grinders you see at the grocery store—but those don’t really seem to be available. So I decided to try this one, and overall I’m glad I did. I’ve included photos to give a better sense of the size compared to your store size non-refillable salt grinders, since it’s a bit larger than what I originally had in mind. The grinder works smoothly and doesn’t require much effort to use. You can easily adjust the grind size by turning the knob on the top of the grinder, which is a nice feature. Refilling it was also straightforward. I had no trouble pouring in coarse Himalayan salt from a larger container without making a mess.

      Salt or pepper grinder.
      Color: Silver1
      Excellent product. I accidentally broke one of mine and was pleased that I was able to purchase one grinder. They’re beautiful and very well made. Grind salt and pepper easily and many different coarseness. And they are pretty.

      Inexpensive but certainly not 'cheap'

      These work well and feel like very good quality far in excess of what you might expect for the price. I am very happy with my purchase.
