John Creasy grew up in western Pennsylvania and lives today in Pittsburgh with his wife, three children and their three dogs. John is an avid wilderness traveler and lover of the natural world. John and his wife Alyssa have created music together for over 20 years with their band This Side of Eve and for congregational worship.

For as long as he can remembered John has loved trees, from giant sequoias to Japanese bonsai. Since childhood forests have been a place of spiritual connection and solace for John. This love of forests, trees and nature led to the founding of Garfield Community Farm, a 2.5 acre non-profit permaculture farm in urban Pittsburgh. Community farming served as a gateway to combine a love a nature with a love for people and Christian ministry. John was also a founding pastor of The Open Door Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh where he ministered for twenty years. John won a “40 Under 40” award for his work to bring food equity to urban Pittsburgh through urban farming. In 2016 John traveled to North Dakota to participate in the indigenous resistance at Standing Rock. That experience helped solidify a passion for climate justice and a pursuit of healing for planet earth.

Currently John is an organizing pastor of Wild Indigo Guild, a ministry helping people of faith connect with God through nature and design landscapes of food production and ecological restoration. John also works as a permaculture designer and spiritual nature guide.
