In Episode 03 of Amar La Tierra, journalist Jo Youle hosts 3 local farmers on Ibiza farm Can Cristofol in San Lorenzo at sunset, to discuss how and when the soil should be tilled.It is a controversial topic for many. Often we are told it is a local tradition and that the Balearic Red earth has been tilled for hundreds of years, but machines only came to be fifty years ago.Before that many animals were involved in this process and tilling was done by hand.In this series, you can hear the details of the many regenerative practices taking place on the islands explored through the podcast that protect and preserve the lands of Ibiza, Formentera, Mallorca and Menorca.Youri heads up the stewardship of the land at Can Criostofol and he creates raised beds that he makes and tills by hand. We also hear from Roberto Contaldo - the "Italian Horse Whisperer" in the episode who works with Equitraccion, to turn the top soil and plough the earth when needed.Borja Cami also joins the trio as an experienced agronomist who works with large and small scale farms across the mainland and also within the Balearics.Borja contributes the perspective of tilling from a larger scale production and showcases the ways tilling is needed with machines, but says it is all about the timing and structure of the soil at certain times of year.This Episode was recorded LIVE in front of an audience at In June as a launch party & fundraiser for the show with a farm to table dinner that followed, provided by Gabrielle Gambina of Ibiza Produce.If you wish to keep hearing the stories of the islands rich red soil, please support the production of the series on our crowdfunding page. https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/AmarLaTierraYou can hear the episode in Spanish:https://open.spotify.com/show/1BILqNQkZC6UM50KHnIKJo?si=ff2badf26c8d4e21You can watch it on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5hpN8NXiOYA massive Thank you also to our sponsors:BlackNose WinesVino Y CoGooldtooth VermouthCharles Marlow...more July 31, 2023EP 02: Designing Regenerative Cultures with Daniel Christian Wahl, We talk Wildfires with Ana Digon and Visit Ibiza´s very First Zero Carbon House In May we met Designing Regenerative Cultures author Daniel Christian Wahl at a one day event, The RegenerateX Conference at the Tierra Iris Farm on ibiza.Daniel lives on Mallorca and as well as discussing his book, he explained why he feels this statistic of only 4% of the food being consumed in Ibiza is grown here is not due to a a lack of production and gives us his ideas for how we can increase rainfall on land and tackle our biggest drought issues.As Europe begins to burn again this summer and July has recorded the hottest temperatures on record worldwide, we talk Wildfires with the President of Spains Regenerative Agriculture Association, Ana Digon on how we can prevent further blazes in the Balearics.We finish with a visit to Can Tanca, Ibizas very First Zero Carbon House.Co-Founder of Terravita, Jason Watson Todd explains why he was driven to create the off grid island home that creates more energy than it consumes.This is a Reset Rebel Production presented by Journalist Jo YouleTo Listen in Spanish you will find the episode HERESupport us in the production of this podcast: https://www.justgiving.com/crhttps://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/AmarLaTierra...more June 21, 2023EP01.
