Author Jan Reynolds Visits Lincoln!

Jan also took us on the cycle of rice through the lens of Indonesian rice farmers in Bali, emphasizing how they still use sustainable farming practices. Furthermore, we spent time exploring the similarities of “Celebration” around the world to see ourselves as one human family celebrating life on earth.
