Farming For Health Part Two - Ecological context through a Syntropic lens
Episode description
Now, this week we are getting into part two of our Farming for Health series, looking at farming through a Syntropic lens with Alasdair Bednall.
In the first part of the series we cover what nature wants, what the human ecological niche is and how we can fill it.
Part two is about context - the where and how of regenerative practices and why these are important, we also cover the pitfalls of trendy regenerative agriculture, why your neighbours waste stream is a fraught input for your land, what Alasdair's tenets of regenerative agriculture are and much more.
If you want to catch up on everything Alasdair is doing, courses he is holding or if you want to watch or read his posts about syntropy, agriculture and ecology - search for entangled edible ecosystems on facebook or Instagram, give him a follow and if available to you, get to one of his courses on an introduction to syntropic gardening, Alasdair is a wealth of knowledge, a kind and gentle teacher and it is with great pleasure that I welcome him back for part 2 of farming for Health.
Enjoy the discussion.
