By: Francesca Mundrick, Founder & CEO
Hello! My name is Fran and I am the Founder of Rewild New Jersey Community Cooperative.
Welcome to Rewild New Jersey!
I am so excited to finally be sharing the wonderful world of rewilding with all of the citizens of the Garden State.
I consider myself to be a Geographer, Educator, Advocate, and Community Leader. I am a unifier and reformist- bridging the gap between communities and working to create new thinking. I believe that the systems that we live in are functionally good, however, we need to continually transform and take responsibility for our future in a pragmatic way. We can have it all- we just need to work to get it.
I am a lifelong New Jersey native! I am originally from North Jersey and I now live in South Jersey. I swear- I have been everywhere in this State! New Jersey is my home. I am a part of the lands and communities of New Jersey, I understand it, and it is my space for bettering the world.
I am a Professor at Rowan University teaching in the Department of Geography, Planning, & Sustainability. Starting in 2022, I became a PhD Candidate of Sustainability Education at Prescott College. Both my teaching and PhD coursework led me to studying the discipline of community rewilding and, soon after, informed the development of RNJCC.
The rewilding discipline as a whole, including the branches of conservation, human, and community rewilding, is common sense, hopeful, nature first, and back to basics. The past is in our future- rewilding will provide us with what we need.
I look forward to what Rewild NJ will bring to my life and the lives of others.
Join me in transforming the 21st Century!
Let’s get wild New Jersey!
