Do you know those extraordinary people that truly inspire or motivate you?

Forever shaping how you live your life?

Well, I have a few people I consider to be in that group.

So for the next few weeks, while I'm out filming new episodes from my television series

growing a greener world, I'm bringing you a few of those conversations from a previous

podcast series you likely didn't even know existed.

Their conversations with some of those heroes who have influenced organic gardening and lifestyles

around the world, including mine.

The conversations are as relevant today than ever before.

So to start, I'm bringing you my conversation with Maria Rodale, third generation of the

first family of organic farming and gardening here in the US.

In the midst of an agricultural chemical revolution, post-World War II, her grandfather, J.I.

Rodale, set out to show that an organic approach was still the answer to better and healthier

farming, gardening, and people.

So in this conversation, I talk with Maria on why that's more important than ever, in

simple ways we can make a difference in shaping our future.

You're listening to the Joe Gardner Show, the podcast all about gardening, where we cover

Now here's your guide, National Gardening Television Host, and the Joe Behind Joe Gardner,

Hi everybody, it's Joe Lample, the Joe Behind Joe Gardner, and welcome to the Joe Gardner

Show.
