Bioregional regeneration is a land stewardship approach focused on undoing past harms and reversing environmental degradation, while bringing back biodiversity and cultivating ecological resilience.
Solar Punk Farms is a queer-led climate hub dedicated to bioregional regeneration in Guerneville, CA. Through a radically inclusive approach that incorporates science, art, and collaboration, the farm engages queer folks, youth, and local community members to create a more ecologically-minded society — while also creating a safe space designed for queer people to explore farming and cultivate a strong sense of identity in a rural, land-focused environment.
Spencer Scott co-founded Solar Punk Farms with his husband, Nick Schwanz. On this episode, Spencer joins Terra Verde host Fiona McLeod to talk about the vision and philosophy behind the climate hub, and about their work to create resilient ecosystems and thriving, sustainable communities.
