Affordable No-Dig Garden with Stephanie Hafferty and Morag Gamble

In Episode 100 of the Sense-Making in a Changing World,  I am delighted to be speaking with STEPHANIE HAFFERTY who is based on a half-acre no-dig permaculture farm in Lampeter, Wales.From the Half Acre Homestead, Stephanie explains how to grow year round using climate friendly regenerative organic gardening methods for abundant harvests and fewer weeds, working harmoniously with wildlife, and what to do with your harvests, from seasonal meals to preserving, homemade body, home and garden care, remedies and natural dyes.In this episode, Stephanie shares a wonderful story about how she discovered permaculture and gardening, the joy she derives from it, and how growing food has helped her to put healthy food on her children’s plates on a modest income. This affordability and accessibility piece is a big part of what Steph is about, and what she shares with people - nothing highbrow or expensive. Just straightforward simple advice to get a diversity of healthy food from the pot to the plate.ABOUT STEPHANIEStephanie is an award winning garden and food author - she wrote the Creative Kitchen, and co-authored No Dig Organic Home and Garden - and she’s a cover girl for a recent Permaculture Magazine!

Really live, as nature ourselves, tending the conditions where life can thrive. We ask How do we become the kind of humans this moment is asking us to be?This podcast is one of my acts of myceliation. Each conversation is a thread in a vast network of people speaking up for life with love and care. This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.
