Where Hope Grows

In this week's episode of Where Hope Grows, I sit with my wife and life partner, Katie Forrest to talk about all things poultry. Through these stories we reflect on the journey of livestock guardian dogs, the unquenchable desire for owls to decapitate, indestructible peafowl, and how memorable raising poultry can be. These stories serve as reminders of the deeper wisdom and important lessons bestowed upon us in our journey through regenerative agriculture.

On this week's episode of Where Hope Grows we sit with Force of Nature Co-founder, Casparis Sansom to explore the true cost of food. In this journey we peel back blinders and demonstrate how regenerative meat is not only the most nutrient dense food on the planet, but also one of the most affordable. Furthermore we look at the consequences of putting price before all else, and at the expense of all else. This episode will shock you at the core as we deconstruct food costs and help you reconnect with a truth that is sitting in plain sight.

On this wild edition of Where Hope Grows, we look into the complex and often misunderstood story of feral pigs in the United States. Often regarded as destructive invasive species, droves of wild hogs are causing massive ecological degradation at an unfathomable scale. What if the solution to this problem was well within reach? What if we changed our perspectives and turned this destructive force into a healing and nourishing energy? What if we voted with our forks and knives? This is Where Hope Grows.

On this inspiring episode of Where Hope Grows we travel to the famous Bamberger Ranch Preserve to explore the gift of water. Over 50 years ago this landscape was a degraded cedar monoculture with a shattered water cycle. Through a seemingly impossible vision of restoring this landscape, a first generation land steward named J David Bamberger looked into Mother Nature for wisdom, guidance, and grace. What happened next was beyond his wildest dreams and lead towards reshaping conservation practices in much of the Southwest United States. This story is about hope, nature's capacity for forgiveness, and about creating water from stone.
