Podcast #143 – Presentation to Master Gardeners on Resilience


We were honored and delighted to serve Tuesday as the program presenters for the Central Alabama Master Gardeners Association, talking about our work to design more self-sufficiency into our lives here at Longleaf Breeze. Today’s podcast is a summary of that presentation. We cover our work to grow more of our own food, to use as little energy as possible, and to increase redundancy.
