Podcasts about seeds

Episode Description: In this episode of the Beet podcast, Logan chats with Jenny Angius and Sydney Roberts of Urban Roots in Reno, Nevada. On less than an acre, they're growing tons of food and building community. With raised and in-ground beds, their farm is a hands-on classroom for kids, parents, teachers, and students alike. About Urban Roots: Urban Roots began in 2009 with a mission to use gardening as a tool for S.T.E.A.M. education, environmental stewardship, and nutrition. In partnership with local schools, the program grew, leading to the creation of a teaching farm in west Reno that offers hands-on learning through camps, field trips, and teacher training. In 2017, Urban Roots expanded to its current location, where it cultivates produce and hosts year-round outdoor education. During the challenges of 2020, the organization adapted by launching at-home learning and indoor gardening kits, ensuring families could stay connected to nature and learning.

Manchester-based producer Lily Mumby, the creative force behind Lapalace, has chosen Lavender as her botanical muse for this sixth instalment. The standout track ‘new age night' – a stunning love child of William Basinski's decaying tape loops and Aphex Twin's intricate programming—carries subtle lavender-inspired tones, balancing the plant's calming essence with hypnotic rhythms. Just as lavender requires thoughtful tending before rewarding the gardener with its distinctive aroma, Lapalace's landscapes reveal deeper complexities with each listen.

Wondering what to plant in June? You're not too late to plant for summer. In this episode, I'll tell you 5 seeds you can plant this month whether you're in a hot climate, a colder climate, or somewhere in between.   Note: You're in a hot climate if your summertime temps will regularly be in the 90s; a mild climate if your temps are mostly in the 70s and 80s; and a colder climate if you're just coming off your last frost date.   IN THIS EPISODE:

I had so much fun, and learned a ton from this conversation with Greg Peterson of the Great American Seed Up and the Urban Farm Podcast! If you've been listening for a while, you know that podcasters are great conversationalists, and can be very entertaining - Greg is no exception! Greg's podcast has about 900 (nine hundred!) episodes since the end of 2015!Greg has been on a mission since he was 15 years old to figure out how to fix the broken food system, and has been running the Great American Seed Up out of Arizona for several years; kind of like a buffet for seeds - thousands of people attend in person each year, to stock up on seeds. He says seeds are expensive to buy when you buy from a store, mostly because of the pretty packaging, so they simplify it, and you can buy in bulk. *You can also mail order seeds, FYI* In my head, I've been trying to imagine what the event looks like, to have bulk seeds for thousands of shoppers...The first soundbite I posted to promote this episode gave me chills - he said this: "I am the person on the planet responsible for transforming our global food system." WOW! And this is the message he hopes you will take away from this conversation: "The most important thing that we can be doing right now is figuring out where our food comes from and how to grow our own. And that starts with having seeds and knowledge to grow food." He also says that 20% of our gardens should include pollinator-friendly plants - that's a great piece to start with!You can find all things Greg Peterson at https://www.urbanfarm.org/ and https://greatamericanseedup.org/They're also on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/urbanfarmu?igsh=MXZpNzhmbzdrd3Nndg%3D%3DYou can send me messages(this is new!)!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

We've a new god of the Pantheon, we have a easy money-making scheme (selling yellow mugs), we have another surprise face showing up, and we have a very intriguing final line of the episode! What could it all mean?!

This episode features a brief life update as well as an article I wrote at Easter-time, but true for all times. Life is a cycle of deaths, seeds buried. But we believe in resurrection through Jesus Christ. My garden is a metaphor for that.

"You don't know where you're going to end up. But if you have this vision for it, and you do the work, you can get there."Today's episode was ripped directly from one of our 10,000 NOs Working Actors Community weekly zooms where Matt addresses the challenges that face our members. Today, we discuss how to think bigger than our current circumstances. You have to create a vision and start planting seeds in the direction of where you're looking to go. Matt uses David Lynch and his career as an example. Some of his early work that initially didn't gain as much traction ended up getting a lot more attention after his other films took off. 10,000 NOs is here to inspire you and help you realize you are not alone if you're battling to overcome rejection in your career or life.So, if you're an actor, writer or filmmaker and you like what you hear in the snippets from our Working Actors Community zooms enough to want to be a part of it, CLICK HERE.Remember, “failure” is just opportunity in disguise, and you can flip the script to make your setbacks serve you.SHOW LINKS:10,000 NOs: THE BOOKSUBSCRIBE TO OUR (WEEKLY) NEWSLETTERFOLLOW MATT ON SOCIALFIND OUT HOW YOU CAN JOIN THE WORKING ACTORS COMMUNITY

This month we've gone back further than ever before to 1967 a time when none of us existed yet and everything was psychedelic and groovy. There's proto prog, primeval punk, pop masterpieces, and whatever you'd categorise Zabadak as...We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Tim Buckley, Calico Wall, Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band, Country Joe & The Fish, Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, The Electric Prunes, Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, The Hollies, Jefferson Airplane, The LEft Banke, Love, The Lovin' Spoonful, Pink Floyd, Louis Prima & Phil Harris, Otis Redding & Carla Thomas, Kenny Rogers & The First Edition, Sam & Dave, The Seeds, Nina Simone, Stone Poneys, The Third Bardo, Vanilla Fudge, The Velvet Underground, Scott Walker, The Who, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental BandFind all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5AZHbpp2zaOQoCQwI2QjDN?si=9838e165b6d94229Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

Combining the power of the Magnetic Memory Method with this crucial topic is a meaningful endeavor. Grandpa Bill is crafting some mnemonics and memory palace locations to help myself, and you all- internalize and deliver this information effectively for my podcast and YouTube episodes.Grandpa Bill Continues Today Talking:Giving the heavy nature of this topic, a location that evokes a sense of history, perhaps with both dark and hopeful elements?Consider:A Historical Museum: Each room or section could represent a different aspect of the descent into violence, human cost, resistance, and aftermath.A Journey Through a Symbolic Landscape: Start in a place representing early signs of intolerance, move through a dark forest symbolizing violence, emerge into a field of resilience, and finally reach a place of remembrance.A Grand Old Library: Different sections could house the "books" of each stage, with specific shelves or reading nooks holding key details.For these examples, let's use the Historical Museum as our primary Memory Palace.1. The Descent into Violence:Location 1: The "Seeds of Hatred" Exhibit (Museum Entrance Hall)Location 2: The "Authority's Grip" Exhibit (Darkened Room with a Stage)Location 3: The "Mechanics of Perpetration" Exhibit (Glass Cases Displaying Horrific Objects)2.

Like Joseph waking up after his dream, Knowing they had to go, I'm thankful for the guidance received, And will pack up and head down that road. ☉I looked up the date for when the Sun was conjunct Pluto: January 21, with Mercury following close behind on the 29th. Seeds that were sown or root core issues brought to the surface at that time to be transformed are now returning in a new light for healing. As I mentioned in the report, expect revelations on Saturday that will lead to healing throughout the weekend and through Tuesday.Needless to say, these changes that we're going through are rippling through the entire collective conscious and unconscious. The birth pangs will be rattling our cages both internally and externally over the next 9 months. Two key messages that come to mind are, first of all, the one in the mantra "I'm thankful for the guidance received." Repeating that over to ourselves will also remind us of Spirit's presence in our lives and invite our guidance to grow louder. Secondly, more than anything else, be as gentle as possible with yourself and others during these times of transition. Try to go as slowly as possible, spend time in nature, paint, run, dance, do yoga, and whatever is helpful for your body/mind and immune system. Slowing down and caring for the nervous system will also help soothe and calm the emotions, reduce anxiety, and help sleep (so you get more dreams!). Let's all hang in there, knowing that the far distant shore will be here before we know it! Blessings on your journey!It Don't Come Easy!  https://youtu.be/UDcZxEpA9XY?si=q4aOGpqkD-h7KqCI New Music!

EP. 213: In this episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I'm joined by one of the world's leading experts on peptides and cellular medicine, Dr. William Seeds. Dr. Seeds is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with over 25 years of experience and the founder of the Seeds Scientific Research and Performance Institute. He's also hosting the upcoming Peptide World Congress this June 2025 in Las Vegas, where I'm honored to be speaking on the main stage! Together, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond the basics of GLP-1s. We explore how these peptides can support not just weight loss, but also behavior change, neuroplasticity, and metabolic function. Dr. Seeds shares fresh insights into how GLP-1s affect the brain, why they must be paired with strength training, and the dangers of overreliance or overdosing.  Topics Discussed:  What are the benefits of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss? How do GLP-1s like Ozempic affect neuroplasticity and behavior change? Why is strength training essential when using GLP-1 peptides for fat loss? Can you customize GLP-1 dosing based on patient sensitivity and metabolism? What are the risks of overusing or overdosing GLP-1 medications like Ozempic?

When a fleet of interstellar spaceships leaves our solar system for a planet circling a nearby star the most important of all of the riches that human explorers will carry with them will be libraries of our planet's DNA and the seeds of plants. They are the connection between past life, the inorganic world, and future life.

In this episode of the Bites and Bytes Podcast, you host, Kristin Demoranville,  is joined by Andreas Duess, co-founder of GoCPG and CEO of 6 Seeds, to unpack what's really driving the food and beverage industry right now.   Spoiler: it's not just taste trends or fancy branding.  Its behavior, data, and decisions are made without proper insight. We talk about: How AI is helping food brands try to understand real consumer behavior The say-do gap: why people don't buy what they say they want How Uber Eats data, smart fridges, and strained supply chains shape product development Why big brands are suddenly out-innovating startups What GLP-1 drugs mean for food categories And why rebuilding communities around food matters more than ever Whether you're in food, tech, or cybersecurity, or just curious about the systems behind what we eat, this episode pulls back the curtain on where the industry is headed. _____________________________________ Andrea Duess's contact information & companies: Andrea's LinkedIn Personal Site 6 Seeds is the Communication and Innovation Consultancy for today's agri-food Brands goCPG is an AI-powered platform that helps food entrepreneurs and consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands grow by providing personalized insights, mentorship, and tools to turn their ideas into successful businesses. _____________________________________

You may have heard people who started up businesses talking about how they found investors. Typically, they’ll say something like, “We pitched our idea and raised X amount.” It sounds simple. But when you dig a little deeper, delivering a successful pitch to investors is not quite as straightforward as describing your business as “The Uber of dating” or “Air BnB for pets.” Financing a startup requires convincing investors or lenders they’re taking a worthwhile risk. Crafting this calculated risk into a convincing sales pitch - which can be in the shape of a business plan or a presentation known as a “pitch deck” – is a special skill. And it’s what Camille Terk does at her company, Terk Consulting. Tey Stiteler came up with her idea for a business after she and her partner bought 4 acres of land near Poplarville, Mississippi. Tey was looking for a reason to quit her desk-job and work outdoors. With absolutely no background in farming or horticulture, Tey started growing flowers. She grew a lot of flowers. And started meeting other people who grew flowers. Tey began selling her flowers at markets and pop-ups around New Orleans. Then in 2024 when she went all-in and opened a brick and mortar business on Camp Street. It’s called, The Secret Spot Flowers. There’s a question I’ve heard interviewers ask people. It’s, “If you could go back in time to when you were starting out, what would you tell your younger self?” I don't ask either Camille or Tey this question but there’s no doubt that if they, and most people, knew what roadblocks and curveballs and just downright weird, unexpected things were going to come up when they started down the path of founding and running a business, they might question their optimism and the wisdom of blind faith. On the other hand, when things work out, as they have so far for Tey and Camille, the ups and downs become a bunch of great stories. Out to Lunch was recorded live over lunch at Columns in Uptown New Orleans.

Meet the Guest: Dr. Susan Caldwell Dr. Caldwell is a NAPRO-trained women’s health and fertility specialist, former birth control prescriber, and cradle Catholic who didn’t always agree with Church teaching... until science (and some divine nudging) got her attention. This episode is full of important info, but please remember: This isn’t medical advice. Talk to a trusted physician (preferably one who respects your faith and your fertility!) before making any health decisions. The Big Shift: From Pill-Pusher to Pro-Woman Doc Dr. Caldwell shares her eye-opening journey: -Took the Pill herself for 10 years, thinking it was “just what women do” to pursue professional goals. -Prescribed it for years without question...until she started seeing patterns: breast cancer, strokes, blood clots in young women. -She realized the risks weren’t “one in a million” flukes. They were dangerously underplayed. -When she actually looked into the science and pathophysiology, it blew her mind and opened her heart to what the Catholic Church had been saying all along. The Risks Are Real (And They're Not "Just Catholic") Here’s why any woman should be concerned: 1. It’s a Group 1 Carcinogen That’s the same level as cigarettes and asbestos. We don’t call that “healthcare.” 2. Mental Health Meltdown Taking birth control while your brain is still developing (under 25) can cause permanent anxiety and depression. 3. Damaged Fertility Many women who delay pregnancy find out too late that birth control sabotaged their fertility. 4. It Can Kill Babies Many forms of contraception don’t just prevent pregnancy; they can act as abortifacients. Little lives lost without anyone knowing. It’s Not Just About Morality. It’s About Mercy. Dr. Caldwell stopped prescribing the Pill... not just because of Church teaching, but because she couldn't, in good conscience, ignore the science anymore.She even apologized to patients she’d previously prescribed it to. Was it scary? Oh yeah. Did some patients walk away? For sure. But many stayed, listened, and even came back later with more questions. Seeds planted. Real Talk: Women Deserve Better Timmerie and Dr. Caldwell passionately argue that: -Contraception is bad medicine. -Women are not being told the truth about their bodies. -It's not “just a Catholic issue.” It’s a human dignity and health issue. -There ARE life-affirming, science-based alternatives (like NFP and NAPRO) that actually support women’s health. Share the Truth. Start the Conversation. Because women deserve to know the full story... not just the easy one. Know someone who’s on the Pill “just because”? Share this episode. You might be the spark that leads them to real freedom.

Esty Dinur speaks with three panelists taking part in a program next week to celebrate World Day for Cultural Diversity. They discuss seed sovereignty, wild rice, and the legacies of colonialism. The post A Conversation on Seeds, Stories, and Solidarity appeared first on WORT-FM 89.9.

May 16, 2025 - Join us for a discussion with Dr. Joan E. Cho, Associate Professor of East Asian Studies at Wesleyan University on her 2024 book Seeds of Mobilization: The Authoritarian Roots of South Korea's Democracy, which explores the nonlinear nature of South Korea's democratization. Using oral interviews, original protest datasets, and publications by student and labor activists, Cho illustrates how modernization structures such as industrial complexes and tertiary education initially bolstered authoritarian regimes before facilitating protests by various social movement groups, which ultimately succeeded in ushering in the country's democratization. During the discussion, Cho also describes how this historical legacy continues to impact Korean politics, including the generational divide and the recent Martial Law and impeachment episodes. This program is moderated by Korea Society policy director Jonathan Corrado.  This program is made possible by the generous support of our individual and corporate members and the Korea Foundation. This program is co-hosted by The Center for Korean Research at the Weatherhead East Asian Institute at Columbia University.

In a community-based culture like Afghanistan, it's difficult to hide one's faith. When an Afghan commits to following Christ, it's not long until those around him or her notice a difference. This creates an opportunity for gospel witness. Or for Christian persecution. Author John Weaver, long-time gospel worker in Afghanistan, joins VOM Radio this week to update listeners on that nation and how Christians are faring since the Taliban retook control of the government in 2021. John explains how a new Christian's family and tribal background often influence what type of persecution they face, and how their persecutors may come from multiple levels: their own family members, tribal leaders and/or the Taliban government. Despite these challenges for believers, ministry, evangelism and discipleship are still happening in Afghanistan—and among Afghans all around the world. Through careful, prayerful conversations Afghan Christians are planting gospel seeds, always aware that every person they share with could become their brother in Christ, or their persecutor. Pray Afghan Christians have wisdom and discernment about these conversations and whom they can trust to share their love for Jesus. You can learn about John Weaver's work in Afghanistan by reading his books, Inside Afghanistan and A Flame on the Front Line. Listen for ways you can pray specifically for Afghan Christians and their persecutors. Hear John Weaver's previous conversations with VOM Radio by visiting www.vomradio.net/weaver. John also wrote a book about meeting his wife in Afghanistan and their Afghan Christian wedding in Najiba: A Love Story From Afghanistan.
