Green Dreamer: Sustainability and Regeneration From Ideas to Life
In this conversation, kaméa chayne is joined by Martín Prechtel, who speaks to us from Northern New Mexico where he presently lives with his family and their Native Mesta horses.Having grown up with a Pueblo Indian upbringing and later becoming a full member of the Tzutujil Mayan community in the village of Santiago Atitlán, Guatemala, Prechtel draws on his deeply embodied knowledge of various Indigenous languages and invites us to unravel the meaning of “real culture.”What does it mean to re-member and re-learn the languages of land, plants, and place?Join us in this enriching conversation as we explore the contentious politics, practice, and (re)embodiment of Indigeneity, and what it means to become culturally indigestible for the sterilizing stomach acids of the “monster of modernity.”We invite you to…tune in and subscribe to Green Dreamer via any podcast app;subscribe to Kaméa's newsletters here;and support our show through a one-time donation or through joining our paid subscriptions on Patreon or Substack.

The last thing you would expect to find at ShowStoppers at CES in Las Vegas was a garden, but that's exactly what Gardyn was showing. Chief Experience Officer Nicolas Chikhani explained how their hydroponic system that includes cameras and lights lets you grow plants, flowers, and vegetables in a small, vertical arrangement with minimal effort. Even better, Kelby AI monitors your plants constantly and provides details on what needs to be done to keep things healthy and growing. Maintenance is minimized and enjoyment is maximized.

Creativity is one of those anchors-to-windward in unsettled and worrisome times. So is a hands-on, creative project – with bonus points for working with organic materials (natural fibers, clay, or – flowers)! Just in time for Valentine's Day, and all the spring events cascading from there in the coming months, we're joined this week by a woman who has artistry, creativity, and hands-on project inspiration in spades to share with us – Passionflower Sue is our guest – and her work might be the end of January inspiration and gift to yourself you didn't know you needed – but I knew. Passionflower Sue, aka Sue McLeary, is an artist. Very specifically an artist with flowers, and she thinks you probably are too. Whether you're a professional florist, a friend helping friends with flowers, a parent helping a child (and all their friends) with their corsages and boutonnieres, or a gardener looking to have fun with flowers for your table or your hair, you're going to enjoy meeting Sue in conversation this week. With a long career in floristry, from designing to event management, to sustainable floristry advocacy and lots of teaching, Sue believes that floristry is an art form, and those of us engaged in it are artists! She “aims to offer immediately useful and relevant educational information that equips and empowers florists- allowing them to express their creativity and make what they crave to see.” She believes (and I am with her): “When we harness our creativity, we create more interesting, artful work that fills us and lifts us.” Her goal is to empower the floristry artist. And it's her “passion to help push floristry forward!” Having had the great pleasure of attending events and learning from Sue – it is my even greater pleasure to welcome her to Cultivating Place this week. 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. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

Today, I am talking with Dr Carol Hughes, a leading expert in canine microbiome research, whose episode where we spoke specifically about the microbiome is by far one of your favourites! But today we are going to be discussing one of Carol's other passions, and that is plant antimicrobials. Carol has been researching plant antimicrobials for over 20 years, and this is a fantastic complement to our discussion of the canine microbiome, because plant antimicrobials offer a potential alternative to conventional antibiotics that wreak havoc on the microbiome, and instead, target specific pathogenic bacteria without disrupting the entire gut system. In this episode, Carol begins by sharing with us her fascinating story of how she first got into this line of research via horses, and you'll be amazed to hear that Queen Elizabeth I is part of this story! We also preface this chat with understanding the context we are in where we have lost our knowledge about plants, and how we must reclaim it in an era of antibiotic resistance. Carol then dives into: * How plants come to have antimicrobial properties * How plants can help us target pathogenic bacteria - and how plant antimicrobials may be the microbiome's only hope! * How you can use plant antimicrobials, and which ones you can choose right from your kitchen for your dog's health * You'll also have a brand new understanding of nature therapy when you hear how trees help heal our illnesses! And so much more! Carol is an absolute fount of knowledge, so I know you are going to find some real gems in this chat. If you'd like to reach out to Carol, or you'd like to learn more about how to order a microbiome test and report for your dog, visit her website https://www.biome4pets.com If a holistic approach to caring for your dog resonates with you, and you are interested in learning more about how you can put the pieces together, Stacey Renphrey of Hozho Hounds and I are launching our F.E.T.C.H. membership which is designed to teach you the same holistic framework that we use in our canine nutrition and wellbeing practices, so that you, too, can confidently take control of your dog's health journey.

Today on the Gestalt Gardener, we learn that Felder is getting a little too "cheeky" across the pond, but he's still kind enough to call in to give advice on why you shouldn't be pruning right now and discuss plants with big names like rhododendrons, camellia japonicas, and Chinese parasols along with other taxonomic nomenclature. Let's get dirty!Email Felder anytime at FelderRushing.Blog and listen Friday mornings at 9 and Saturday mornings at 10 to The Gestalt Gardener on MPB Think Radio. In the meantime, in Felder's words, "get out and get dirty."If you enjoyed listening to this podcast, please consider contributing to MPB: https://donate.mpbfoundation.org/mspb/podcast Hosted on Acast.

Kew Gardens near London is one of the most famous botanical gardens in the world, welcoming countless visitors every year. But what many visitors may not know is that the history of Kew and that of the British Empire are intimately intertwined… At the height of the empire, Queen Victoria visited the iconic glass Palm House six times in the first few weeks it opened, and palm houseplants became a proud symbol because of her patronage. The botanical gardens also served as a laboratory that allowed imperial industries to boom. For example, seeds collected by Kew gardeners developed rubber plants that were shipped around the empire. The rubber plantations in British Malaya became so valuable that Britain fought a bloody war in 1948 to keep them. Listen as Anita and William are joined by Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireworld, to discuss how Kew was instrumental to the empire.
