Tapputi is widely regarded as one of the first known chemists, and her name appears in a Mesopotamian cuneiform tablet dating to approximately 1200 BCE. She is believed to have worked in the Babylonian royal palace, where she held the title of “Belatekallim,” meaning a female overseer or supervisor. Tapputi is most famous for making perfumes, the descriptions of her work provide some of the earliest documented evidence of chemical distillation and solvent use—techniques that form the foundation of modern chemistry.

Cubah Cornwallis (c. 1700s) was a Jamaican nurse who lived from the mid to late 18th century until 1848. Cubah was likely born into slavery, but eventually gained her freedom and settled in Port Royal, opening a lodging house that doubled as an early hospital. She was known throughout the port city for her healing techniques that nursed many naval officers back to health. Her methods drew from Obeah tradition and practice. Cubah is considered one of the foremothers of modern nursing practice. For Further Reading: A Week at Port Royal by Richard Hill Black History Month: Who was ‘Queen of Kingston’ Cubah Cornwallis?

In celebration of Black History Month and looking forward to Women's History Month - this week we're so pleased to air another of our CP LIVE: Dialogues to Grow By conversations, recorded live in front of an audience on the home ground of the Cultivators of Place with whom we are speaking.  This week's CP LIVE recording focuses on the paradigm-shifting landscape work of Leslie Bennett, who is dedicated to beautifully designed, edible-plant-rich, culturally rooted gardens for all people AND centering Black Women in the American Landscape. It's a great pairing. The interview and gathering for it took place on an unexpectedly chilly evening in late September 2024. Still, the spirited audience of 80+ people - in full celebratory finery - was not bothered at all. And the event was also an occasion for the first public unveiling of photographic portraits by Rachel Weil of the first eight women beneficiaries of a Black Sanctuary Garden. The portraits are taken of each woman in their gardens - embodying, as Leslie described it, their full and authentic joy and liberation. The whole evening unfolded in the heart of elegant, fruit, flower filled terraced backyard garden - one of the black sanctuary gardens to date. This conversation and all it was trying to express and hold space for was richly integrated with community, with an event specific shared music playlist, with laughter and food. Cultivating Place live is a special project of CP in the form of a limited series of CP interviews done with a curated group of gardeners across the US and recorded as audio and film (by the talented filmmaker Myriam Nicodemus of EM EN) throughout 2024 and 2025. These interviews are conducted in front of an audience of the gardeners' community in order to support and recognize these gardeners' accomplishments and contributions to the greater good as a result of their human impulse to Garden. These recorded CP Live experiences will be compiled into a film documentary rolling out in 2026/2027.  The mandate for me in these experiences and interviews is to not only give voice to (as the podcast always does), but actually make visible the many diverse connections animated by the gardening impulse everywhere. What this conversation makes visible to me, and I hope to all listeners, is that gardens are food, beauty, health, and divinity. Gardens are land use. Gardens are community centers, gardens are one form of public policy made manifest by the people. Gardens are authentic joy and liberation. Enjoy! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place.We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations.

  Podcast Summary Unlock the secrets of the resilient beach plum, Prunus maritima, and learn how these tenacious plants help fight coastal erosion while offering a rich tapestry of horticultural history. We'll transport you back to the days of early explorers like Giovanni da Verrazzano and Henry Hudson, who first documented these hardy shrubs along the northeastern United States coast. Join us as we uncover how beach plums have long intrigued cultivators due to their genetic diversity, presenting challenges and opportunities that have persisted since the 19th century. Meet the unsung heroes of beach plum cultivation from the 1930s, including Jay Milton Batchelor, Wilford Wheeler, and George Graves, who championed unique varieties with passion and humor. We'll explore the historical significance of the Cape Cod Beach Plum Growers Association and discover the quirky connections between its founders, the environmental elements they studied, and the playful coincidences they encountered. Through stories filled with both horticultural insight and wit, we celebrate the legacy of these dedicated individuals who refused to let the allure of the beach plum fade into obscurity. Journey with us into the renewed interest and research of the early 2000s, led by institutions like Cornell and UMass and other researchers. We highlight their efforts to identify and preserve the best beach plum varieties and their commitment to maintaining genetic diversity. As we wrap up, we'll share amusing anecdotes about the lengths enthusiasts might go to obtain cuttings and encourage listeners to join forums and online communities to ensure these unique cultivars thrive for future generations.   For sources, transcripts, and to read more about this subject, visit: www.agroecologies.org To support this podcast, join our patreon for early, commercial-free episode access at https://www.patreon.com/poorprolesalmanac For PPA Writing Content, visit: www.agroecologies.org For PPA Restoration Content, visit: www.restorationagroecology.com For PPA Merch, visit: www.poorproles.com For PPA Native Plants, visit: www.nativenurseries.org To hear Tomorrow, Today, our sister podcast, visit: www.tomorrowtodaypodcast.org/   Key Words: Beach Plums, Prunus maritima, Coastal Erosion, Horticultural History, Early Explorers, Genetic Diversity, Cultivation, Cultivators, Giovanni da Verrazzano, Henry Hudson, Northeastern United States, Jay Milton Batchelor, Wilford Wheeler, George Graves, Cape Cod Beach Plum Growers Association, Environmental Elements, Dr. Uwe, Dr. Abigail Maynard, Cornell, UMass, Genetic Diversity, Cultivars, Yukon 49, Jersey Gem, Forums, Social Media, Cataloging, Genetics

About This EpisodeJoin us for a very special episode with three incredible guests, Elisa Arias, Kate Knight and Jeff Hamaoui, who exemplify the transformative power of regenerative living and how it fosters thriving communities and a healthier planet. Farm manager Elisa delves into the importance of being present, and she embodies the concept of living in reciprocity with the Earth. Kate's transformative approach to urban gardens turns small spaces into sustainable oases that can have a substantial impact on the environment, the community, and your personal well-being. And as the co-founder of the Modern Elder Academy Jeff brings wisdom from his firsthand experience in developing a regenerative community in Baja. The discussion underscores that meaningful environmental contributions don't require grand gestures but can start with small, localized efforts such as welcoming more people to our table, nurturing our gardens, and fostering a welcoming atmosphere within our neighborhoods. They each remind us that the journey to a sustainable future is a collective endeavor that begins with individual acts of kindness, awareness, and a commitment to a holistic approach to life. About The GuestsElisa Allen Arias is the Farm Manager of Baja Sage Farm in El Pescadero, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Elisa also acts as a farmer-collaborator with a statewide non-profit, the Alianza para la Seguridad Alimentaria (ASA), and the International Community Foundation (ICF) as part of a cooperative effort to improve the regional food system. Her background combines formal education and lived experience in biology, agriculture, food systems, teaching, wellness, and entrepreneurship.  Kate Knight is an executive consultant and a serial entrepreneur. She has repeatedly grown businesses from concept to hundreds of millions in revenue, and uses her expertise to support founders and executive teams scaling their work in the world, safely. She is also the founder of Dearborn Properties, an experiment in regenerative real estate, applied at home.    Jeff Hamaoui is Co-Founder and Chief Education and Innovation Officer of Modern Elder Academy, the first-ever ‘midlife wisdom school.' Dedicated to reframing the concept of aging, Modern Elder Academy (MEA) supports students to navigate midlife with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility.

Some of the companies in the cultivated meat space are betting that massive stainless steel cultivators—think 100,000L to 250,000L—are the path to commercialization. Niya Gupta, CEO of Fork and Good, is thinking smaller.  She argues that there may be a more realistic path using a larger number of smaller tanks, void of the impellers that agitate the more conventionally used reactors in the sector.  Founded in 2018, the company was spun out of Modern Meadow, the first-ever cultivated animal product company which is now focused on materials like leather rather than meat. Having raised more than $20M in its first six years, Fork and Good just held its first-ever tasting of the animal cells they're growing, and as you'll hear in this conversation, it was a real success.  Does Niya think that the cultivated meat industry can make up one percent of the conventional meat industry's volume within the next decade? Listen to her insights in this episode for the answer to that question! Discussed in this episode Niya recommends reading Man's Search for Meaning, which she re-reads annually. Paul mentions that a quote from Man's Search for Meaning was read by the officiant at his wedding. That quote follows: “The truth – that Love is the ultimate and highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love.” Niya also recommends reading Radical Candor and Mindset. Modern Meadow is profiled in Clean Meat, including the new (2024) paperback edition. More about Niyati Gupta Niya Gupta is the co-founder and CEO of Fork & Good, a cultivated meat company addressing the high costs of the industry with a novel and patented approach in cell culture that produces meat more efficiently than cows and pigs. Niya was also the CEO of Comcrop, a vertical farming startup in Singapore selling greens into major supermarkets. Prior to this she had spent more than 10 years in food and conventional agriculture businesses, including at McKinsey and Syngenta. She holds an MBA and MPAID from Harvard, and an Economics BA from Yale.

To boost an employer brand, Brittany King does not believe in hiring for culture-fit. As she wrote on a LinkedIn post, Brittany believes that organizations should seek out what she calls “culture cultivators.” A highly seasoned recruiter who focuses on culture as well as diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, Brittany wrote that culture cultivators prepare an organization for the future, they optimize the organization for growth, and they develop process improvements to remove those elements that inhibit organizational success. In this episode, we broke down where culture cultivation starts, infusing culture cultivation into institutions' strategic plans, and how to identify culture cultivators who will inspire brand ambassadorship throughout campus.  This Episode is Sponsored by PathifyMeet Pathify —  an innovative higher ed engagement hub that puts students at the center of their college journey.

Although opioids are pretty effective in mitigating chronic pain and post-surgery discomforts, they are also very addictive and, in most cases, generate more problems than they solve. One of the alternatives to opioids is terpenes and cannabinoids, which are highly effective, yet a large portion of the population still resists them. In today's episode, Otha Smith III joins the show to enlighten us about the medicinal use of CBD, THC, and cannabis terpenes. Otha is the Founder and CEO of Tetragram, a SaaS platform that connects Dispensaries, Cultivators, Brands, and Medical Professionals with cannabis and CBD consumers. Tetragram's purpose is to become the "Yelp" of cannabis by empowering cannabis consumers by allowing them to track, rate, and share their personal experiences with the herb. Throughout our conversation, Otha talks about the accident that got him under a nasty cocktail of various opioids prescribed by his doctor, pushing him to look for a healthier alternative to deal with pain and post-surgery discomforts. Otha also talks about his research on plant-based medicine, the explosion of CBD businesses, and the lessons learned in his entrepreneurial journey. Additionally, we discuss the use of cannabinoids in the workspace, how dangerous it is for internal customers who deal with heavy machinery and stick their hands in running motors; Otha debunks myths about wake-and-bake, and so much more.In This Episode, You Will Learn:What is Tetragram?
