Unbuckle your mind and open your heart. It's grow time.
My guest today is Jim Gale, the founder of Food Forest Abundance. Jim has a simple belief, if we Control our food, we control our freedom. And the way to do so is simple too.
Fun fact, do you know what the largest and most destructive monoculture crop is? It’s grass. And there is a wild history around how we were duped into believing that it was a good idea to turn our fertile, food yielding land into a patch of green that we spend so much time and money to keep manicured with poisoness chemicals. We’ll get into that and so much more.
Jim’s catalyzing a movement to convert as many existing lawns & denatured farmland into diverse, plentiful, and easy to maintain food forests. By providing customers with designs, education and community resources he’s helping feed one community at a time. Wherever Jim is growing, he utilizes the wisdom of nature by replicating naturally occurring biological & botanical advantages. These completely eliminate the need for poisons & pesticides, and are permanent fixtures that scale to any size, are adaptable to any climate, and have plentiful annual yield. It’s Jim’s goal to eradicate the majority of health issues through a clean food and water supply.
On this episode we cover key principles and design systems for food forests, community resilience, shedding unhealthy narratives and much more.
Unbuckle your mind, and open your heart, it's grow time!
