Obsessed with Plants Podcast
Welcome to the Obsessed with Plants podcast with David Starbird and Kristofer Edler. This deep-dive podcast will cover some of the nerdy topics that need a little more attention in the permaculture community. Both David and Kris have extensive backgrounds in regenerative agriculture with years of growing experience. In this introductory prelude to the podcast, you’ll have the opportunity to get to know your hosts a bit and learn about their passion and experience.
And along for the journey are our friends, a diverse group of plant, animal, and ecosystem enthusiasts; we all share a passion for education and learning. However, with a group that loves to ramble for hours... and hours, it's hard to condense their info into a short video.
So that's where this podcast comes in! The goal of the podcast is to provide useful information that we normally summarize into very brief snippets.
And to give an outlet to ramble on about our love for plants.
Each episode will be themed and cover a range of topics.
We hope you love our rambling about plants, and we hope to see you in the garden!!

EPISODE 2: STARTING ON A BUDGET
Wouldn’t it be nice if we each had $500K to get started on our dream property and food forest? Better yet, wouldn’t it be nice if we had $1M and could retire and just become full time farmers on that land? Well, unfortunately many of us need to start on either a limited budget or limited time constraints, however – we can still take steps forward.
In this episode, David and Kris will share not only how they got started planting their food forests, but also give tips on how to make progress right where you are. Whether you are starting with .22 acres in suburbia or 22 acres in the country, it’s time to plant those trees. You will learn not only some practical tips for immediate success and gratification, but also some of the pitfalls that many people face.
Learn how to start a food forest on a budget and be sure to have a notebook ready, this episode is packed with some real gold nuggets for both new and experienced gardeners. It’s time for abundance.
