April Deep Dive: Rogation & Faith Community Supported Agriculture with the Rev. Kerri Meyers from Good Courage Farm and Jerusalem Greer from Procter Center
The Rev. Kerri Meyer is an ordained Episcopal priest with a deep love for the created world. Formed as a priest at St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church in San Francisco, she defaults to highly participatory, embodied, sung liturgy. A Master Naturalist (2022) and a Master Gardener (1996), she sees the farm within the whole of the local ecology. The animals of the farm are her primary agricultural responsibility, but she does love black currant season and grape pruning season. As a founder of Good Courage Farm, Kerri serves as the Executive Director and Farmer-Priest at Good Courage Farm.
Jerusalem Jackson Greer is Co-Executive Director and Agrarian Minister for the Procter Center, an Episcopal Farm, Camp, and Retreat center in the Diocese of Southern Ohio. As former Manager of Evangelism and Discipleship for The Episcopal Church under Presiding Bishop Curry, she co-founded the Good News Garden movement. She is also the author of two books, At Home in this Life: Finding Peace at the Crossroads of Unraveled Dreams and Beautiful Surprises and A Homemade Year: The Blessings of Cooking, Crafting and Coming Together, as well as multiple Episcopal curricula, including the Abundant Life Garden Project for Episcopal Relief & Development. Jerusalem received her MA from Wartburg Theological Seminary with an emphasis on Rural Ministry. Jerusalem is an associate of the Community of Saint Mary, Southern Provence, and co-host of the Spade, Spoon, Soul podcast. She lives on camp with her husband and Co-ED, Nathan, at Procter.
