MEET THE TEAM: CHRISHA FAVORS! 🍄
Y'all, say hey to Chrisha, BCI's Program Coordinator of Community, Resiliency & Storytelling! 👋🏾
Chrisha brings decades of experience in education, outdoor leadership, environmental stewardship, and community building. From teaching music, hula hooping, and guiding backpacking adventures to growing food and creating meaningful community experiences, her work has always centered on connecting people to one another and the natural world.
At BCI, Chrisha helps bring our community programs to life! Whether she's coordinating food distribution, getting folks excited about growing their own food, organizing events, or building community partnerships, she's passionate about creating opportunities for folks to learn, connect, and thrive.
When she's not at BCI? You'll probably find her tending to her 13-acre homestead, wandering through the forest looking for mushrooms, foraging for wild foods, hula hooping, playing instruments, or heading out on an outdoor adventure. She's a nature nerd through and through, with a particular love for fungi, ecology, gardening, and all the little wonders of the natural world. 🍄
Fun fact: Before finding her way into environmental education, Chrisha spent over a decade as a music educator and has been hula hooping professionally for more than 15 years!
At the heart of everything she does is a belief that community care, connection to the land, and access to meaningful experiences should be for everyone.
We're grateful for the creativity, knowledge, and whole lotta community love Chrisha brings to BCI!
Show Chrisha some love in the comments! 🧡
