Description

When we think of farming we think of the country, the bush, grass plains, endless acres… unless you’re an urban farmer who sees possibility on any patch of land the eye can see - enter Greg Peterson, founder and director of the Urban Farm in Phoenix Arizona who heard his teacher say “Food used to be free” at a workshop as a pre-teen and the rest was history. Greg inspires us to do what we can with what we have. He inspires food growing to come back to cities and towns, balconies, backyards and verges and today we’re talking about how he got started and what we can all do to bring food growing closer to home and support urban farms. Enjoy the show and head to our show notes at lowtoxlife.com/podcast to connect with Greg’s work and see the sponsor offers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello! Thanks for being curious about the Low Tox Life podcast. I'm Alexx Stuart, your host, and after writing and researching on health and sustainability for many years at lowtoxlife.com, I am thrilled to bring this podcast to you as an extension of the online community. The concept of living a Low Tox Life is one that rejects perfection, black and white notions of there only being one way to 'do it right'. Instead, we take a relaxed and curious approach to better choices to incorporate into our lives as and if they fit. Low Tox therefore instead of 'no tox' which to most of us who aren't on an off grid hippy commune, just isn't achievable. There's nothing more that makes me sad than having people quit before they begin because you feel like a failure. Let's feel awesome about what we can learn and do from today! On this show, we cover lots of low tox topics around sustainability, health, fashion, farming, lowering our toxic load and mind happiness and with the brilliant minds I'm so grateful to chat with, I just know you'll be inspired as I am from each show. Enjoy, subscribe, pop the kettle on and most importantly: Welcome!
