5x15 on Health and Nature with Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew
With increasing numbers of people taking up plant-based diets, and growing advocacy for outdoor wellness, including hiking and wild swimming, it seems that the importance of the relationship between nature and human health is finally being understood. But what is actually involved in drawing nutrients- as well as physical and mental health benefits- from the natural world around us? While the importance of what we eat is well-documented, can we also implement better agricultural practices that lead to lively and fertile soils, better health, and a reconnection with the land? 5x15 panel discussion with David R. Montgomery, Anne Biklé, Marchelle Farrell, Lorraine Lecourtois, Kathy Willis.
