076 - Changing our Relationship with the Land

Sunday Mar 29, 2020
Annie and Jay Warmke of Blue Rock Station are joined by Chad Cully, horticulturist at the Cincinnati Zoo's botanical gardens, in a discussion of how society must change our definitions of what is private land, what is public land, and who makes decisions on how each is governed. We are getting a bit more crowded, so a conversation must take place between farmers, city dwellers, industry, recreation - basically let's all act like adults and understand that what we do on our "private property" affects the larger world as a whole. But that the owner's needs must also be considered when regulating land use. Hopefully we will see a new form of Agri-Forestry emerge that will assist in sustainable development well into this century.
