Thomas Berry often spoke about the children. “It takes a universe to educate a child.” he said. In this webinar Jeanne Clark will share how she has introduced children to the Universe and helped them experience awe and wonder as they connected to the place where they live. Jeanne has brought the lessons of the universe to the children in both a classroom setting and at Homecoming Farm.
Sister Jeanne Clark, a Sister of St. Dominic from Amityville, NY , is an educator who has been instrumental in the creation of Homecoming Farm, a community supported agricultural project or (CSA) which helps humans heal through the nurturance of soil and seed and producing vegetables without the use of chemicals.
