The CORES Project

The CORES program is uniquely designed to provide hands-on experience for K-12 students in ecological restoration, teach observation skills in the natural environment, and encourage self-reflection.  Our programs are based on holistic and place-based education.  We will sit with teachers to specially design outdoor programs to teach or reinforce their objective or essential standard.  Our project changes lives by providing a deeper way of seeing the land, one child at a time.

The Great Work

​The Great Work book study is a 6 weeks study in applying the writings of Thomas Berry to everyday life. Some passages of the Great Work contain profound philosophical insights, others flow more like a lyric poem, still others provide detailed historical background and some motivate a person to actions.  From the discussions it is anticipated that each participant will find ways to appreciate and appropriate the insights of Thomas Berry to make decisions about practical changes they can make in their own daily living in the planet.
