We're thrilled to welcome the one and only Randy Buchler of Shady Grove Farm to State of Water. Randy shares about the journey and foundational principles behind his and his wife Libby's work as they embrace permaculture and organic practices to treat the land and water in a healthy, regenerative way while providing nutrient dense, healthy food for themselves and their community. We hear about Randy's efforts with the Michigan Small Farm Council and behind the scenes stories about Randy's successful right to farm case which generated international interest and has had state wide ramifications allowing people to produce and procure the foods of their choosing within reason and give small farms a chance to exist in a policy landscape that favors large, commercial industrial agriculture. Randy reflects on his own personal connection with the water and how that guides his farming practices as well as his day to day experience enjoying the water as a source of healing, play, relaxation, and connection. Finally, we hear some powerful reflections on community and Randy's deep belief in paying it forward, as an educator and advocate, sharing his skills and knowledge while empowering others to discover their passion for producing their own food in a healthy, sustainable way.

We are thrilled to welcome Chris Treter, owner and co-founder of Higher Grounds Trading Company to State of Water. State of Water host Seth Bernard invites Chris to go on a journey through time, (4:40) back to the 1990s and the formative events of the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico and the WTO protests in Seattle - both moments of people standing courageously against neoliberal economic policies. (11:58) In 2002 Higher Grounds was born in Chiapas as Chris lived and worked with coffee farmers, rooted in a model of solidarity economics not only about trade but taking into account the well-being of all trading partners. (14:30) From there, the conversation travels back to Michigan as Chris and Higher Grounds find deep community in Traverse City and then back again to (19:55) Chiapas with the launch of the Chiapas Water Project which provided important access to clean water for farmers and communities. (26:10) As Higher Grounds started building relationships with coffee farmers in other regions of the world, they carried the same ethics and values - to be in solidarity and collaboration with their growers and communities. (28:20) Seth and Chris share memories of their Run Across Ethiopia - where runners ran 10 marathons in 10 days and raised over 1/2 million dollars to invest in local communities. Through storytelling, athletics, activism, and the arts, Chris and Higher Grounds have continued to be a force for creating change and building meaningful relationships in the communities that they were sourcing their coffee. (36:45) We travel back to Michigan and hear about the new Common Grounds Cooperative in Traverse City - a real estate development cooperative that has quickly become a hub of arts, culture, and collaboration - a vision of community by the community. (46:15) Finally, Chris shares some powerful thoughts on clean water and peace making and how we in Michigan hold a unique opportunity to be protectors of a future peace that cares for water in a fair, equitable, and peaceful way.

Maryann's new novel, Land Marks, will be published on April 16 and is the culmination of more than 2 years of research where she visited all of the fracking sites across Michigan.

While acknowledging and honoring that heaviness - we hope you find this to be an uplifting & empowering conversation as Maryann and Seth speak to the transformative power of creativity, the importance of nurturing intergenerational community, and how meaningful it is for each of us to find our unique voice and do our part for the sake of the common good.

This proposed metallic sulfide mine would be the closest to Lake Superior in history as well as bordering the North Country Trail and Porcupine Mountain State Park - which is not only the largest State Park in Michigan, it is the largest designated Wilderness Area in mainland Michigan with 40,000+ acres of designated Wilderness including 35,000 acres of old growth forest which is the largest tract of mixed coniferous-deciduous old growth remaining in the Midwest. It was recently ranked as "most beautiful State Park in the country." The Michigan Strategic Fund is currently considering a $50M grant to the proposed Copperwood metallic sulfide mine - this move would be an incredibly irresponsible use of taxdoller money and most likely open the door to additional investment and funding that would help the foreign energy company get the necessary resources to start development. Tom goes in-depth in the episode to how we got here, what's at stake and all of the current calls to action that we're encouraging folks to take.

Building Mid-Republican Rome: Labor, Architecture, and the Urban Economy (Oxford University Press, 2018), offers a holistic treatment of the development of the Mid-Republican city from 396 to 168 BCE. As Romans established imperial control over Italy and beyond, the city itself radically transformed from an ambitious central Italian settlement into the capital of the Mediterranean world. Seth Bernard describes this transformation in terms of both new urban architecture, much of it unprecedented in form and extent, and new socioeconomic structures, including slavery, coinage, and market-exchange. These physical and historical developments were closely linked: building the Republican city was expensive, and meeting such costs had significant implications for urban society. Building Mid-Republican Rome brings both architectural and socioeconomic developments into a single account of urban change. Seth Bernard, an Assistant Professor of Classics at the University of Toronto, assembles a wide array of evidence, from literary sources to coins, epigraphy, and especially archaeological remains, revealing the period's importance for the decline of the Roman state's reliance on obligation and dependency and the rise of slavery and an urban labor market. This narrative is told through an investigation of the evolving institutional frameworks shaping the organization of public construction. A quantitative model of the costs of the Republican city walls reconstructs their economic impact. A new account of building technology in the period allows for a better understanding of the social and demographic profile of the city's builders. Building Mid-Republican Rome thus provides an innovative synthesis of a major Western city's spatial and historical aspects, shedding much-needed light on a seminal period in Rome's development.

Building Mid-Republican Rome brings both architectural and socioeconomic developments into a single account of urban change. Seth Bernard, an Assistant Professor of Classics at the University of Toronto, assembles a wide array of evidence, from literary sources to coins, epigraphy, and especially archaeological remains, revealing the period's importance for the decline of the Roman state's reliance on obligation and dependency and the rise of slavery and an urban labor market. This narrative is told through an investigation of the evolving institutional frameworks shaping the organization of public construction. A quantitative model of the costs of the Republican city walls reconstructs their economic impact. A new account of building technology in the period allows for a better understanding of the social and demographic profile of the city's builders. Building Mid-Republican Rome thus provides an innovative synthesis of a major Western city's spatial and historical aspects, shedding much-needed light on a seminal period in Rome's development.

For our final episode of the 2023 we are once again turning the microphone around on State of Water host and Title Track founder Seth Bernard. (3:51) We begin the episode with Seth sharing a few more reflections coming off of his recent experience at the One Water Summit, which was featured in Episode 38. (9:05) Seth gives some end of year reflections on where we've been as the State of Water Podcast and the Clean Water Campaign for MI, speaking to some of the many insights that we've learned along the way that will inform our work moving forward as we seek to deepen into our commitment to water equity, environmental justice, and climate resilience. (20:55) In the second half of our conversation, Seth vulnerably shares of his passionate commitment to being in solidarity with the Palestinian people and speaking truth to power. The grief, horror, anger and overwhelm that so many of us are feeling right now with the ongoing devastation in Gaza is so incredibly heavy - we hope that this conversation with Seth can serve as a powerful portal for you into deeper empathy, understanding, and love in action - the world surely needs it. Just like in our last episode you'll be hearing music throughout this episode from “Headwaters”, a beautiful new instrumental album from Seth. All proceeds from this album go to support the work of Middle East Children's Alliance (MECA).

On this episode, we feature Toledo-based activist Markie Miller - the key leader who spearheaded Toledoans for Safe Water, a grassroots campaign that lead to the passing of the Lake Erie Bill of Rights this past February. Since then, she has spoken about the Rights of Nature movement all over the country. On Earth day 2019, she spoke to the United Nations as part of the Ninth Interactive Dialogue of the General Assembly on Harmony with Nature. She was even featured on the Daily Show with Trevor Noah. For this interview, we're taking you into the crowd of the 2019 Water is Life Festival, held in Mackinaw City Michigan last August, where Seth Bernard interviewed Markie.

Building Mid-Republican Rome: Labor, Architecture, and the Urban Economy (Oxford University Press, 2018), offers a holistic treatment of the development of the Mid-Republican city from 396 to 168 BCE. As Romans established imperial control over Italy and beyond, the city itself radically transformed from an ambitious central Italian settlement into the capital of the Mediterranean world. Seth Bernard describes this transformation in terms of both new urban architecture, much of it unprecedented in form and extent, and new socioeconomic structures, including slavery, coinage, and market-exchange. These physical and historical developments were closely linked: building the Republican city was expensive, and meeting such costs had significant implications for urban society. Building Mid-Republican Rome brings both architectural and socioeconomic developments into a single account of urban change. Seth Bernard, an Assistant Professor of Classics at the University of Toronto, assembles a wide array of evidence, from literary sources to coins, epigraphy, and especially archaeological remains, revealing the period's importance for the decline of the Roman state's reliance on obligation and dependency and the rise of slavery and an urban labor market. This narrative is told through an investigation of the evolving institutional frameworks shaping the organization of public construction. A quantitative model of the costs of the Republican city walls reconstructs their economic impact. A new account of building technology in the period allows for a better understanding of the social and demographic profile of the city's builders. Building Mid-Republican Rome thus provides an innovative synthesis of a major Western city's spatial and historical aspects, shedding much-needed light on a seminal period in Rome's development.
