Climate Change got you down? Worried about the fact that *everything* seems to be getting worse? Wondering how we got to this point in the first place, and what can we do to build a more resilient future? We take a look at historical pastoral & agricultural societies to see what worked and what didn’t, as well as what resources we have today to make better decisions to build equitable systems. We don’t just discuss ecology and history but also take a leftist perspective on prepping, foraging, homesteading, weapons, community-building, and basically anything that needs discussing during late-stage capitalism.

New Old Tree Crops with Eliza Greenman
Sunday Jul 30, 2023
Sunday Jul 30, 2023
In this episode, we're joined by Eliza Greenman to discuss two of the most underutilized American crops, acorns and persimmons. While folks are familiar with oak trees, what evidence do we have to better understand how these ubiquitous trees could be used for food production? Persimmons, on the other hand, have remained mostly a fruit known in the southeastern parts of the United States and overseas. What makes these two so special, and what kind of work is going into them today for a better, more resilient future food system?
