Setting Inspirational Examples with Ben Falk

Ben Falk is one of the most prominent figures in the world of ecological design but he didn't always see that path as his future. At a young age, he was drawn toward acts of dramatic protest, like sleeping in trees. But eventually he had an epiphany: the best way to inspire change is not to yell at or shame people, but to show them a better way to live. 

In the show, we discuss how Ben became one of the biggest names in his field, how he manages his own land, what kinds of client projects tend to succeed in the long term, and how mainstream awareness of permaculture is shifting. Check out Ben's work at wholesystemsdesign.com.
