April Podcast: Regenerative Farming

The Story Walking Radio Hour (SWRH) is an online open resource that supports environmental education and awareness.  SWRH podcasts can help teachers, parents and school counselors introduce youth to professional vocations that offer exciting opportunities to help co-create a greener and healthier world.  Nature-inspired eco-conscious stories and conversations inspire activism and promote habits, products and practices that listeners can consider incorporating into their daily living to support sustainability.

The radio hour guest list includes nature educators, farmers, landscapers, arborists, lawyers, biologists, urban planners, programmers, product developers, a fashion journalist, artists, authors, business professionals, students, activist parents and more.  Host Wendy Nadherny Fachon, a freelance environmental educator and journalist, begins each episode by sharing a short story from her own personal Walking Journal. Each story offers a lesson in the soul-guiding practice of Story Walking, while also setting the stage for each guest interview.    

SWRH content seeks to address Next Generation Science Standard ESS3.C Human Impacts on Earth Systems, which states: “Human activities in agriculture, industry, and everyday life have had major effects on the land, vegetation, streams, ocean, air and even outer space. But individuals and communities are doing things to help protect Earth’s resources and environments.”  SWRH also supports biological science, English language arts, social studies and social-emotional learning. 

Below is an 11-page pdf listing of SWRH podcasts, organized into topic categories.  Each listing includes the episode title, guest name, vocation and organizational affiliation, along with an active podcast link.  Each link leads to more detailed information about the episode, the guest and expanded learning resources.  SWRH is hosted on the syndicated Dreamvisions 7 Radio Network (D7RN).  A new episode streams each month, every Monday at 9am and 9pm ET, on D7RN, and gets archived for future access as a podcast, on the D7RN website.    

The first episode of the Story Walking Radio Hour series, Finding Solutions Instead of Problems, recorded in 2019, shares Story Walking's origin story and conveys the essence of the podcast series.  Wendy's own stories show how to put the fun practice of Story Walking into action to write more meaningful life stories.  If you have any queries, comments or ideas, please reach out to Wendy – storywalkerwendy@gmail.comor 401 529-6830.  Learn more at storywalking.com.
