サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Carolyn recalls romanticizing the woods after spending time with her father among the majestic Redwoods.
Her connection to the forest deepened when she later, within her studies, traveled to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Surrounded by their rich forests, she was struck by a profound realization that changed her career path: these forests and their biodiversity were deeply intertwined with agriculture.
This insight revealed to her how Western culture often approached growing food incorrectly, while some local communities used practices that regenerate the environment, doing the exact opposite.
What was her experience there? What is agroforestry? And how can agriculture help nature regenerate itself? Join Carolyn Hirshon, a PhD student at the University of Rhode Island and the host of The Farmers I Know podcast, as we explore the world of sustainable food systems.
