Really enjoyed this podcast - just a well intentioned note for future production : the last bit about the parking lot design was very interesting in theory but super abstract because we never ended up seeing much of what he was talking about concretely even though you were filming in the parking lot itself. A few additional shots illustrating what was said would have been great.

I have started planning some of these ideas for our garden in Montreal. Albeit on far small scale.

Interesting approach to reusing material that would otherwise go to landfill. Also, raises the important consideration of the longevity of the materials used.

Very interesting, how difficult would it 🐝 be to make bee hotels in all fence posts as a matter of course?
