Green Dreamer: Seeding change towards collective healing, sustainability, regeneration

Jon Jandai of Pun Pun Organic Farm and I sat down for an in-person dialogue when I visited Chiang Mai, Thailand, back in March of this year.
It builds on our podcast conversation from years ago, during which he shared about how he grew up in rural Thailand, was told by people on TV that rural people are backwards and poor, and consequently moved into the city to work a job to make more money.
But that led to an eventual revelation.
As Jon reflected in our conversation: "I thought, ‘Why did I work 10 hours per day in the city, yet not make enough to feed one person, but when I came back to the land, I worked only half an hour per day and I had enough food to feed six people?”
Thus seeded Jon's pathway to simple living.
Join us in this discussion as we chat about a different kind of wealth and security, how Jon views GDP growth as a sign of what we've lost, and more.

Back in March, when I visited Chiang Mai, Thailand, I got to sit down and dialogue with Gregory Pettys and Ramphai Noikaew of Panya Forest, as well as Thai Elder Jon Jandai of Pun Pun Organic Farm.

This is the second of those three live-recorded conversations — during which Ramphai and I chat about her connection to the Pgakenyaw culture, how living at Pun Pun village helped her regain her sense of self and purpose, and more.

This is the first of those three live-recorded conversations — during which Gregory and I chat about a different kind of materialism, a different kind of privilege, and what it means to not just be seed savers but also carriers of their stories.
