Megan Durney, born and raised in the Chicago area graduated with a public school teaching degree and many life questions. After college she volunteered for two years with AmeriCorps doing community service before and after Hurricane Katrina in the southeast. She also served as a WWOOFer (Willing Workers on Organic Farms, www.wwoofusa.org) and learned good organic farming skills, which led her to ask, “Is there an even more conscious way to grow food?” Shortly thereafter, in 2007, she found her way to the Pfeiffer Center (www.pfeiffercenter.org), which is located in the Threefold Educational Community (www.threefold.org). Presently, she spends her time co-working with interns and Mac Mead, the director, trying to uphold the mission of the Pfeiffer Center, which “is to practice, teach and spread awareness of the biodynamic method of agriculture and land care” while balancing the practical and artistic deeds of unfolding the land as an agricultural entity and herself as a human being.
