Nature as Teacher Series
WE ARE IN A MOMENT OF CHANGE IN OUR HISTORY.
IT’S TIME FOR SOME NEW LEARNING!
"We Can Each Do Our Part: Principles and Practices for an Emerging World"
A 4-part, weekly Zoom class
TWO DATES AND TIME OPTIONS:
Thursdays, Sept 10, 17, 24, and 10/1, 7 – 8:45 pm (2 seats left)
OR
Wednesdays, Oct 7, 14, 21, 28, 7-8:45 pm
This class* is offered by First Light Farm & Learning Center and taught by farm owner and college educator, Jane Reis. Using the natural world as our model, we learn that everything has a role to play in maintaining and nourishing the ecosystem – from the tiniest microbes within the soil to the birds that nest in the trees. That is the natural world – rich in biodiversity -- a natural living system that has endured for longer than we know based on the values of interdependence and inter-relatedness. But what about the human systems we’ve built? What are the principles and values upon which we have built our society? What are the assumptions that lie beneath our systems? How do we move from a “me” to a “we” culture?
Each series will offer resources for personal study, opportunities for discussion, and is modeled after the courses taught by Farmer Jane over the last 20 years at North Seattle College.
This class is especially relevant for people already involved in or interested in becoming involved in issues of environmental or social change. Limited to 10 participants per session.
Please email Farmer Jane if you’re interested in signing up: firstlightfarm84@gmail.com.
*Although valued at $100, this class is offered free of charge. We do ask that at the end of the series that you consider the personal value of this experience and make a donation to support the regenerative farming work at First Light Farm.
