The wonderful Hannah Moloney joins Morag Gamble on her podcast to talk about the joy of gardening, and about her new book "WHY WE GARDEN -on the joy and wonder of growing things, even when we don't have to." It came out this week and it's wonderful!
Morag is host of the Sense-Making in a Changing World Podcast and Our Permaculture Life Youtube, and founder of the Permaculture Education Institute https://permacultureeducationinstitute.org
Hannah is @GardeningAustralia presenter, educator and designer, author, gardener, activist, community catalyst, and a deeply committed beautiful human.
Why We Garden asks a deceptively simple question — and the answer reveals something essential about what it means to be human.
In this episode of Sense-Making in a Changing World podcast, Morag Gamble sits down with Hannah to explore the deep roots of our relationship with growing things, and her gardening roots.
Hannah surveyed thousands of people for her book, and some well-known Aussies including Bruce Pascoe, Clare Bowditch, Costa Georgiadis, Brenna Quinlan, Charlie Mcgee, Bob Brown, . The top answer for why people garden? Joy — 94% of respondents. Not savings. Not food. Joy.
