Sophie Waechter-Cass: “What’s the story behind the Maya Milpa tradition and the First Acre Program?”

Sophie Waechter-Cass: “What’s the story behind the Maya Milpa tradition and the First Acre Program?” Sophie Waechter-Cass grew up on a family farm in rural Nebraska. She  currently works with a company and organization by the name of Green  Cover Seeds, which promotes biodiversity as a business reconciling  ecology and education with the economy. Sophie spent a year as an  exchange high school student in Peru, where she observed traditional and  indigenous ways of cultivating the land. Being aware of the recent disastrous effects of climate change on crops, produce, and harvests in Nebraska, her  dream is to become a farmer and gardener whose practices contribute to  reducing the effects of climate change, global warming, pollution, and  industrial farming methods. Here, she speaks to Radio Aula Mundi from Bladen, Nebraska, a rural community about two miles from her family farm. --- https://greencover.com/milpagarden/ https://www.sciencenews.org/article/soil-erosion-rate-us-midwest-unsustainable-usda --- At the moment, Radio Aula Mundi is an evolving podcast station where no language and all languages are spoken… It’s  a multilingual mix of music, poetry, lectures, languages, interviews,  documentaries, recipes, and a lot more, co-produced with the students of  the ‘Aula Mundi International Cultural Center’… --- Radio Aula Mundi Centro Cultural & Turistico Aula Mundi Aula Mundi Cultural Travel Center https://radioaulamundi.bandcamp.com/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/radio-aula-mundi/id1584156605 https://www.amazon.com/author/marcorixecker Spotify YouTube https://castbox.fm/channel/Let's-talk-about-it%2C-anywhere-in-the-world...-id4725033?country=us Breaker Player FM  Facebook  Radio Aula Mundi
