Today’s guest is Alex Gray! 🎙️ A lecturer in agriculture, countryside management, and horticulture, Alex is passionate about breaking down the silos in rural education. 🌳📚

We talk about his background in ecology and farming, and how those two worlds—often seen as opposites—can come together through regenerative agriculture and agroforestry. Alex shares how he is rolling out new systems at Brooksby College that get agriculture students, ecologists, and horticulture students working on the same land. 🌱👨‍🏫

Our conversation explores the need for holistic land stewardship education, how New Zealand provides inspiration, and why young people should learn about ecosystems before specialising. It is a powerful discussion about the future of rural learning and how we prepare the next generation. 🌍✨

Enjoy! 😊
