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.

Talking Tree Nurseries with Buzz Ferver
Sunday Dec 17, 2023
Sunday Dec 17, 2023
In this episode, we're joined by Buzz Ferver from A Perfect Circle Farms to talk about tree crops, grafting, tree nurseries, acorns, hecans, and much more. What does it look like to build a tree nursery, what should you be considering in that process, and why is it so important to find a niche around which types of trees you're looking to work with?
Buzz has worked for 30 years as a consultant to farming operations on every scale, designing and developing on-farm composting as appropriate technology. Buzz has been managing a nursery for tree crops for a decade, and has developed a unique collection of improved native crops as well as some non-native species.
In our interview, he mentions a hard-to-find book around tree selections, check out the link below for a free copy:
