Greg Peterson's motto is: "I am the person on the planet responsible for transforming the food system." A tall order indeed. is the founder of Urban Farm U - an entity dedicated to teaching how to grow food and live in a regenerative way. Greg teaches in person classes from fruit tree growing and care to how to get started with gardening. Most of those are donation based. He also teaches online classes and has a membership site to learn all you need to know to become a successful gardener.

The UrbanFarmU podcast, another of the many enterprises Greg is spearheading, is published 3 times a week and so informative.  Check it out. 

In this interview we explore

  • How Greg got started with gardening (spoiler - he was pretty young)
  • A training program Greg took as a young man which shaped how he sees himself in the world.
  • The start of the Fruit tree program.
  • How gardening makes us healthy.
  • Thinking: What if.....
  • How to deal with the "monkey mind."
  • The Great American Seed up.
  • Why Greg loves his tower garden even though he has a 1/2 of an acre to plant.
