Change the World, One Garden at a Time, with Emily Murphy

January 6, 2022 | Source: Joe Gardener | by Joe Lamp’l & Emily Murphy

As we seek to not only stop but reverse wildlife loss and the effects of climate change, going organic is helpful, but it’s not enough. We need to adopt regenerative practices that provide opportunities for nature to heal. To speak to how we can all participate in changing the world, one garden at a time, my guest this week is gardener and author Emily Murphy.

Emily is a regenerative, no-dig organic gardening consultant and designer. She holds a Bachelor of Science from Humboldt State University in California, where she studied ethnobotanical resources — the human use of plants. Her studies focused on taxonomy, plant physiology, soil science, ecology and environmental science. She later went on to study education at Sierra Nevada College in Nevada and garden design at the California School of Garden Design. Emily has penned two books, and she blogs about gardening at PassThePistil.com.
