What exactly is environmental justice? In this episode, Caleb is joined by professor and farmer Jason Adkins in a dialogue around ecosystems, justice, Genesis, and our human place within all of it!
About Jason and the Trevecca Urban Farm: Jason teaches environmental justice classes in the Center for Social Justice at Trevecca Nazarene University. In 2011, Jason worked with students and faculty to start a farm on the university campus. Today, the Trevecca Urban Farm has helped start gardens all over town and hosts on campus a herd of goats, pigs, bees, chickens, worm composting, mushrooms, an herb and flower garden, a vegetable garden, and a large orchard. The Trevecca Urban Farm works with neighbors to build gardens and plant public orchards. This work is aimed at reconnecting people with their land and all its creatures. Jason and his students have shared conservation growing techniques with farmers in the Philippines, Swaziland, Senegal, and around the United States. He received his Permaculture Design Certificate in 2012 and has taught in four PDC courses since then. Presently, Jason is completing a master's degree in counseling and enjoys rock climbing with his children.
