Nature Revisited

Episode 36: Benjamin Vogt - A New Garden Ethic


Listen Later

Benjamin Vogt is an award-winning author and gardener based in Lincoln, Nebraska. In this episode of Nature Revisited, Benjamin explains why we need a new garden ethic and why we urgently need wildness in our daily lives. The seemingly trivial matter of not growing native plants in our gardens is an important factor in how we are short circuiting our response to global crises. By thinking deeply and honestly about our built landscapes, we can create a compassionate activism that connects us more profoundly to nature and to one another.
