Jim Gale is the Founder and Chief Storyteller of Food Forest Abundance, a global movement that helps people grow their food in their own yard so they become more self-reliant. By implementing sustainable, local agriculture in the form of edible backyard gardens, they help turn consumers into producers.

The thread of our whole conversation today is abundance, in that everything stems from abundance and there's enough for all of us. Jim also talks about the power of your mind, breaking from fear and mind control, and taking control over your food source, your health, and your life.

Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:

Episode Highlights:

Understanding the World of Permaculture

The world as we are living it and treating it is being destroyed. It's unsustainable. Our society is unsustainable and all unsustainable systems fail. Whereas a sustainable system creates more energy than it takes to build and maintain, and that is all regenerative and sustainable.

Permaculture is an energy science. It's the sustainable and regenerative use of energy, which is found everywhere. It's a design science where millions of people around the world have collaborated to find out the best way to grow food with the lowest maintenance and the highest yield. And it all starts with design. The food forest landscape blueprint is a 45-page document that lays out all the relevant principles of permaculture and growing food.

Taking Control Over Your Food Source and Your Health

We can create and control the necessary nutrients, vitamins, and minerals we need as human beings to sustain and create health for ourselves because that's the biggest issue right now. Taking control of your health is so critical at this time because people feel they have no control and they just do what they're told. The word “choice” then implies that there's an awareness of choice. But there's not an awareness of choice when somebody has been programmed.

There's no need for war but the problem is this idea of authority and government. None of it is an accident because everything is happening by design. It's been the same families for hundreds of years that have controlled the minds of the people. If you want to control nations, control oil. If you want to control people, control food. If you want to control the world, control the world's currency – and food is the one thing that we can affect.
