S1E11 Matt Swarbrick - Henbant Farm - Part 2

Matt and I continue the conversation from Episode 7 with lots of laughter, some open-hearted chat and reflections on the Holistic Decision Making work we have been learning together. We talk about the experience of embedding into a landscape and the Welsh concept of "fro"; the value of traditional skills and knowledge whilst pursuing regenerative practices; finding the place to call home and learning skills on the land. Matt also shares more of his vision for Henbant Farm and how this has shifted over time from a simple self-sufficiency smallholding to a farm business that builds soil, and then further to a farm that builds resilience in the local community and allows his family and the volunteers to thrive as individuals. Watch/Listen to Matt's ode to Henbant on his Youtube Channel - guaranteed you will get a little bit teary and more than a bit fired up! regenerativelivelihoodpodcast.com patreon.com/regenerativelivelihoodpodcast

What does it mean to live - and work - in harmony with your ethics, your values and your activism? What can we do to accelerate a culture shift towards a more regenerative paradigm, and...how do we do it whilst paying the bills?! Exploring money and the economy, passion and burnout syndrome, activism and entrepreneurialism, The Regenerative Livelihood Podcast is setting sail and hoping to spark a unique conversation around how we - as activists and seekers of change - can tip the economy in our favour. That's what this channel is all about. Starting with the movements I know about - such as permaculture and co-operatives in Britain - I hope to explore far and wide across the globe and span many different approaches to regenerative design and practice, finding unique and intriguing ways of making a regenerative livelihood at every turn. Join me, it'll be a laugh.
