Sustainable food gardening podcast: Morag Gamble on the Vegetable Gardening Show

Posted by Morag Gamble on March 9, 2018 in Permaculture Garden | 763 Views

I was recently interviewed by the American podcaster, Mike Podlesny for his award-winning Vegetable Gardening Show which has over 250,000 subscribers around the world. You can listen HERE.

Mike and I had such a fun time chatting. This is actually the second time we recorded this interview. The first recording was deleted when his office was hit by lightning the night we recorded it! I think this second take was better, so lucky really …

Mike Podlesny is a 3rd generation gardener and author of the book “Vegetable Gardening for the Average Person: A Guide to Vegetable Gardening for the Rest of Us“.  He has been featured in many newspapers, magazines and blogs across the United States.  His website http://www.AveragePersonGardening.com and his blog http://averagepersongardening.blogspot.com/ are visited by thousands of aspiring vegetable gardeners on a daily basis.  Mike Podlesny is also a regular contributor to many websites and blogs and is currently the administrator for the largest Vegetable Gardening page on Facebook.

It’s worth checking out Mike Podlesny’s podcast . He has hundreds of episodes now and amongst these interviews are many interesting people and topics.

Interview Topics

During the interview Mike and I talked widely around many topics including:

  • What does a sustainable society look like?
  • Designing food landscapes and how other cultures benefit.
  • What are some steps you can take to build a sustainable permaculture home garden?
  • What are the challenges that you will face when you set up a permaculture home garden?
  • Turning your food garden into a food forest 
  • Perennial and polycultural gardens right at home.
  • Learning about permaculture from indigenous people. 
    • You can listen to my interview with Indigenous elder, Wiruungga Dunggiirr here and wander through the bushfoods garden with us here.
  • Building the soil structure in a permaculture home garden.
  • Talking about the food that is in your garden that you didn’t even realise was there.

Morag Gamble

My name is Morag Gamble and I am living and working a permaculture life. I live an ‘Off-the-Grid’ lifestyle in a permaculture village near Maleny in the subtropical part of southeast Queensland, Australia with my husband and 3 young children.

We designed and built our modular eco-home – with much appreciated help from my family. We are mortgage-free and live simply. Our income is derived from permaculture-related activities. We grow a lot of vegetables, herbs and fruit in the polycultural garden-playground surrounding our home. We collect our water, deal with our wastewater on-site and produce most of our own power.

I love this way of living and I love bringing my children up in this environment. They are Nature Kids and they are learning vital skills for resilience, compassion and future problem solving through our ecological unschooling approach.

I am also passionate about how this way of life can make a positive contribution to society and support ecological regeneration.
