    Inside the Dome With Ashlyn Bloom

    Ashlyn is the founder of Health Over Wealth Benson and a co-organizer of the movement to stop a proposed secondary aluminum smelter in Benson, Arizona.

    Getting up to speed with Willcox’s groundwater crisis

    In December 2024, the governor of Arizona declared an active management area for the Willcox Basin due to severe groundwater overdraft by large agricultural users, which has caused residents’ wells to go dry, the land to subside, and fissures in the land to open up. In this video I explore how this issue came about, what is currently being done about it and how to stay informed.

    Book Review: The One-Straw Revolution by Masanobu Fukuoka

    Reviewing the book The One-Straw Revolution by Masanobu Fukuoka, a Japanese farmer who developed his method of “do-nothing” or natural farming over 30 years, from the 1940’s to 70’s. He set out to prove a spiritual revelation that human knowledge amounted to nothing by forgoing such modern farming methods as tilling, pesticides and fertilizers to produce the same amount of food with much less labor, by working with nature. I found the book inspiring and thought-provoking, and feel it can serve as a philosophical underpinning to my farming endeavor, which might be closer to becoming a reality (updates in this episode)! — I would love your feedback on this content and welcome your comments on the podcast’s subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/wildburropodcast/
