S6E9 On Neopeasantry with Artist as Family

Artist as Family (Meg Ulman and Patrick Jones) live in Daylesford, Australia on Djaara Country on a quarter-acre permaculture plot, home to their  School of Applied Neopeasantry at Tree Elbow University. They practice a unique form of performance art, comprising how they live, get their food and medicine, and move around; performing modes of life making they call permacultural neopeasantry.

Meg and Patrick are bloggers, fermentors, writers, public speakers, goatherders, gardeners and video makers who also make music, but mostly they're a family who belong to a bloody great community and a beautiful small patch of sacred forest, and therefore they're much more than the sum of our parts.

In this episode we talk about:

• Meg and Patrick's vision for the world
• using grief and sorrow as fuel toward living differently
• de-schooling
• living communally and resolving conflict
• stepping into young eldership
• neopeasantry and using the way we live as activism
• embodied leadership and regenerative living
• finding our way back toward indigenous wisdom

And so much more.
