A Wilder World Is Possible — one 3x3m Patch at a Time - with Jon Conradi Founder of Wild Mosaic

What if rewilding wasn’t just for landowners or scientists, but for everyone — in cities, gardens, and rented plots? This week on Doing Hope, I speak with Jon Conradi, founder of Wild Mosaic, about making rewilding radically accessible. Through his project, people become Rewilders: subscribing to a 3x3m patch of land and following its transformation into a flourishing habitat — while rediscovering their own relationship with the wild. This is a story of loneliness and belonging, tiny insects and big ideas, and finding hope by reconnecting with life. In this episode, we talk about: * Why rewilding offers a recoverable Earth vision * What Jon learned chasing hoverflies and planting leaky dams * How grief over biodiversity loss led to his social impact startup * Making biodiversity personal, participatory, and joyful * Rewilding as micro-learning, habit, and everyday noticing 🔊 "Each little 3x3m patch is a tile in a wider mosaic. You become a Rewilder, and you also become someone who sees more." — Jon Conradi 💬 Jon is joining us for a one-hour live Substack Chat Q&A this week!
