In this week’s Soul Health Mentor podcast I have had the absolute pleasure to interview urban farmer Greg Peterson on how he became an urban farmer and how he knew at 8 years of age what he was here for. Yet life took him to where he is today in a roundabout way.
What I loved most about interviewing Greg was that he answered so many of my questions and at the end of the interview I felt confident just to begin. Gardening vegetables, fruits, and herbs have been a heart wish of mine that felt too big and overwhelming until I spoke with Greg. It felt so reassuring that I could visit his online community classes and podcast for further support on the journey of becoming an urban farmer.
“What if there was a garden and fruit tree in every yard?” This is a question that Greg ponders every day. For over 32 years he created one of Phoenix’s first environmental showcase homes for urban farming. The 1/4-acre yard featured a primarily edible landscape with over 80 fruit trees, rainwater and greywater harvesting, solar applications, and extensive use of reclaimed and recycled building materials.
