Sense-Making in a Changing World Living with the Earth with Perrine Hervé-Gruyer and Morag Gamble
In this episode, inspirational author and market gardener Perrine Hervé-Gruyer. When Perrine turned 30, she radically changed lanes from a career as an international lawyer working with the High Commissioner for Refugees, to becoming a small scale farmer using permaculture and bio-intensive methods in Normandy.
From finding permaculture in search of meaning to new frameworks for growing food, Perrine's practical approach has flipped the idea that only bigger farms can make a living - small-scale permaculture farms not only create diverse abundance, but are more efficient too!
Perrine has co-authored the freshly published book ‘Living with the Earth: A Manual for Market Gardeners, Permaculture Ecoculture: Inspired by Nature’ - an inspirational manual in a three volume set, and it's absolutely mind blowing. And before that, she's also written another fabulous book - ‘Miraculous Abundance: One Quarter Acre, Two French Farmers, and Enough Food to Feed the World’ !
Perrine has a big vision for the future of farming that enables and inspires the next generation to journey and thrive through small-scale ecological farming.
