On today's episode, we will be airing a feature interview with one of the most influential people in my life: dear friend and permaculture actionist Tom Nagy! What a privilege to be able to have him on my show! Tom and I met when I was living in Burlington, Ontario: 2009. For months, everyone I met in Burlington would find out about my interests and tell me "you've got to meet Tom Nagy!" Eventually, I did, and we became friends pretty much instantly, went on many hikes, and foraging adventures, and even went on a road trip, summer of 2009, from Burlington, ON to Powell River, BC, which is where I am right now, broadcasting this show. So, thank YOU Tom Nagy, for landing me in this beautiful coastal town. Unfortunately for us, but fortunately for Southern Ontario, Tom is now back in the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area, doing a number of fascinating things, and he will be joining us on air today, to talk about his exciting endeavours! So, without further ado, let's go to the interview!
