Man Quits Job in Finance to Grow Food and Develop Permaculture Food Forest | From Finance to Farmer

video thumbnail
Andrew Martin once worked in the finance industry in Australia, but after learning about the true state of the world as peak oil and climate change begin to take effect, he knew he had to leave that unsustainable lifestyle behind and do something useful to help heal the earth and to be more resilient in the face of change. He and his wife Beth moved to New Zealand, where they’re in the process of turning green-desert farmland into a productive and bountiful permaculture forest of food.

It’s incredible to see how much they’re harvesting after just three years. Andrew researches extensively about the big interconnected issues in the realms of economy, environment, and energy and offers his skills and knowledge to city and regional councils that need to build their own resilience (that would be pretty much all of them!).
