Know And Grow Your Food With Greg Peterson

Greg Peterson joined me on Sept 16, 2024 to discuss his work in permaculture and regenerative farming. Greg began his journey in food sustainability as a teenager, eventually discovering permaculture, which he describes as the art and science of working with nature. He emphasizes the importance of growing your own food and understanding its sources, noting that many current human systems, including food production, are degenerative and harm the planet.

Greg promotes sustainable practices like composting, organic farming, and urban gardening, encouraging people to take control of their food by growing it themselves. He also shares his experiences in urban farming, having transformed his small Arizona property into a food forest. Additionally, he explains how industrial farming practices are detrimental to human health and the environment. His message revolves around reconnecting with nature through responsible, local food production.
