Dr. Vandana Shiva is a lifelong activist, standing up against GMO:s, seed patenting, fake food and poisonous and extractive methods of farming. She works for the freedom of farmers to save and share seeds, for small scale, organic and regenerative farming and for thriving eco systems. She's the author of over 30 books and the founder of the organic farm, learning center and seed bank Navdanya in India. She is also a Doctor of quantum physics. In this conversation the topics range from non-violence principles to disrupting multinationals in their pursuit of turning nature into money to GMO:s, fake food, seed saving, biodynamic farming and quantum mechanics. And, most importantly, Shiva discusses fearlessness, and how that’s a trait to cultivate and grow into.

Rune Hjarno-Rasmussen is a historian of religion and a specialist on Nordic animism and shamanism. He doesn't believe that animism belongs in the dusty cabinets of the "ancient history museum of humanity", but rather wants to explore how we can merge an animistic worldview with modernity to move forward into planetary healing.

With author, poet and grief counsellor Stephen Jenkinson, this episode revolves around the topics of Grief, Soil and the Origins of an Orphaned Culture – our culture. Our elder-bereft, drunk-on-efficiency, consumerist, clearcutting-of-forests, fracking-of-mountains, bottom-trawling-of-the-oceans culture. The unfortunate inheritance of Our Day. Some of the questions in this conversation are inspired from the interviewer’s recent reading of the book “Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn. Others come from the pain of being a human in the time of the Sixth Mass Extinction. Please visit Campfire Stories for our films and more.

Brigid LeFevre runs the community supported agriculture operation ”Förädlad” (roughly ”Enhanced”) in Järna, Sweden. It’s a biodynamic vegetable garden that focuses on fermenting the harvest in order to enrich it with lactic acid bacteria and to make it keep for a long time.
Brigid grew up in an anthroposophically inspired Camphill community in Northern Ireland where volunteers lived and worked together with people with special needs.
Growing up in a place where food production was separated from the economic market has had a big impact on Brigid’s philosophy as a farmer. And really, come to think about it, why should the global ups and downs of the economy determine the operating practices of local farms?
In Brigid’s garden it doesn’t. She grows and ferments vegetables for the members, who subscribe to her jars of delicious sauerkraut, kimchi and all sorts of lacto fermented pickles all year round. It’s a local, circular economy, which underpins an alive garden, buzzing and chirping, where the goal isn’t to turn a profit, but rather to make the soil more alive with the passing of each season.

Charles Eisenstein is an author, philosopher and speaker. In his book "The Ascent of Humanity" he seeks to answer the question "How did we end up here – at the tipping point between an alive Earth, and a dead one?". His search for answers goes all the way to the root of the human existence, as he dissects the story which underwrites that which we call "normal". The myth of our time, if you will.
This interview was conducted by Mattias Olsson in Järna, Sweden, following Charles' visit to the 10 year anniversary of the Youth Initiative Program.

Stephen is an activist, teacher, author and farmer. He has a master’s degree in theology from Harvard University and a master’s degree in social work from the University of Toronto. He worked for many years in what he refers to as the “death trade” (palliative care) at a hospital in Canada, and has guided hundreds, maybe thousands of people through their dying times.
When I heard Stephen was coming to Europe with his “Nights of Grief and Mystery” tour – a mix of storytelling and concert – I immediately booked a ticket. The day after attending the show in Portsmouth on the southern coast of England, I was fortunate enough to get the chance to interview him.
