The project they began more than ninety years ago continues to this day in the activities summarized in this report. Steiner’s ideas touch on every facet of human social life, including education, the arts, agriculture, economics, science, and medicine. With every observation and indication, Steiner exhorted his students to take his research further — to put it to the test in the laboratory of human life. That is the work of the Threefold community. Today, our people and institutions are carrying a wide array of programs based on Steiner’s work and insights, including: THREEFOLD EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION AND SCHOOL, Waldorf education: Green Meadow Waldorf a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational School, The Otto Specht School institution, was chartered by Nature education for children: The Pfeiffer the New York State Education Department in 1965.

Community, the Pfeiffer Center CSA, the Hand & Hoe, the Pfeiffer Center/Duryea Farm Farm Stand The Threefold Community, July 2018 – June 2019 | 1 Threefold Educational Foundation and School The year 2018-19 brought significant challenges and notable accomplishments. Eric Silber, who became Executive Director of the Foundation at the start of the year, enlisted Joachim Ziegler of Mira Companions for Development to facilitate a series of community-wide envisioning workshops. Individuals representing every project, initiative, and institution in the Threefold community took part in some aspect of this effort to articulate a shared understanding of our tasks in the world and our purpose as a community. This work sparked a renewed appreciation for what we do in our community every day; brought us closer to understanding what is being asked of us today; and helped us begin to articulate the direction we must take up to fulfill our mission in the future. We worked deeply with our mission statement over the course of the year and will present a renewed version this fall that we hope captures the essence of the Foundation’s call for the future. The heart of our work now is collaboration — laboring together — with each other, with other anthroposophical organizations, with our neighbors, and with the wider world. We earnestly dedicate ourselves to this work, and to tending our financial and physical resources, while nurturing our community’s social fabric of people and organizations. Many events of the past year highlighted new capacities for collaboration. In April, for the second year running, we hosted a week of trainings for anthroposophic physicians and nurses (IPMT and NAANA). To accommodate nearly a hundred visitors at that busy time of year requires a lot of stretching and cooperation. Our efforts were rewarded, as IPMT and NAANA committed to return in 2020. We sponsored or hosted talks and workshops by Peter Heusser, Abraham Entin, Nicanor Perlas, and Gary Lamb, plus a conference on artificial intelligence co-sponsored by the Hawthorne Valley Center for Social Research; the annual conference of the Science Section of the School for Spiritual Science; and the Mid-Atlantic Regional Gathering of branches of the Anthroposophical Society. The Threefold Music Series had a successful second season of concerts in November, February, and April, sparking new connections with other cultural and arts organizations in Rockland County. The Bread and Puppet ensemble of Glover, VT, played Threefold Auditorium in December. Other dramatic performances included This War Is Not Inevitable by Michael Burton and We Need New Roses by Laurie Portocarrero. In late 2018, a measles outbreak in Rockland County brought unprecedented challenges to Green Meadow Waldorf School, the Otto Specht School, and our entire community. Even though no cases of measles occurred in our community, the county health department issued an exclusion 2 | The Threefold Community, July 2018 – June 2019 order prohibiting unvaccinated children from attending school.

In other words, ac- cording to Steiner, the ways in which a farmer tends his/her plants and animals in relation to planetary phases and movements, and his/her treatment of spiritual creatures, all influence physi- cal properties of the earth and therefore the functioning of his/her farm (Steiner, 1993).
