About our Staff

Jerusalem & Nathan Greer

Co-Executive Directors

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 and oversaw Way of Love and Evangelism initiatives for the wider church. 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, both published by Paraclete Press, as well as multiple Episcopal curricula including the Abundant Life Garden Project for Episcopal Relief & Development. Jerusalem recently completed her MA from Wartburg Theological Seminary with an emphasis on Rural Ministry. Jerusalem is an associate of the Community of Saint Mary, Southern Provence, co-host of the Spade, Spoon, Soul podcast and in-demand speaker, preacher, and contributor around the topics of outdoor and agrarian ministry, discipleship, evangelism, leadership, and the ministry of belonging in an era of loneliness.

Nathaniel W. Greer has loved church camp, farming, and the outdoors since childhood.  Growing up on his grandparent’s farm, he learned firsthand what it means to live a life rooted in the land.  His first career was in State Parks hospitality. With his wife, Jerusalem Greer, he managed their farm, Preservation Acres, which was a hub of agricultural and small group ministry for the Episcopal community in Faulkner County, Arkansas. After a second successful career in IT, he switched gears in 2021 to his true love – agrarian ministry – and served as the Farm Steward, Host, and Gamekeeper for Stonebridge Farm in Stillwater, New Jersey. Nathan has served in church ministry as a lay member in various ways – from Lector to Eucharistic Minister to Small Group leader and musician. He is excited to share his new work with the Dioceses of Southern Ohio and all who visit Procter. 

Jerusalem and Nathan have three young adult children — Wylie, Miles Greer, and Connor Fearing — and one son-in-life, Elliot Kemp, who are their favorite humans.

Nathaniel Alexander Wilson

Maintenance Coordinator

Nathaniel has worked at Procter for almost a decade. In that time, he has been instrumental in his work on our facilities, on the farm, and even in the kitchen. A master of many skills, Nathaniel works daily to keep the inner workings of Procter’s grounds and buildings functioning. Procter is like a city, with our own water and waste water plant. A person has to know how do a lot of different things to run the maintenance and grounds department at Procter. We appreciate Nathaniel for keeping things running and looking nice at Procter. 

Ryan Wesolowski

Ryan started as a farm intern for two years before becoming Farm Manager. He knows the ins and outs of Procter Center Farm and has a strong passion for creation care and trees! Ryan has taken on the task of reforesting Procter Center. He has planted a variety of native plants and shrubs on the property in his efforts to diversify the land, introduce more native species, and create an orchard for Procter’s future guests.

Wylie Greeson

Resident Assistant for Farm and Programs

Writer, scientist, jack of all trades, if there is a skill to be learned — Wylie wants to try it.

Starting originally as a farm hand, Wylie now writes and runs Procter’s Farm Camp and Camp WILD programs (ask us about those!), where he is excited to work under Jerusalem bringing creation care to us all.

Wylie still likes to keep his hands dirty with the compost & slop initiative, and farm with Nathan and Ryan.

Nia McKenney

Consultant for Communication
