When I first met Jude and Michel at the Vaucluse Open Garden Day in 1997 it was an encounter with the strong, organic energy of the living soil itself.
Since that time we have shared many adventures together: me from the perspective of information machines and networks…they from the perspective of cultivating people and ideas in their vast garden of learnings.
As the years have entwined their way into our memories, the technologies of websites and the chemistry of the Seed Savers organisation have both transformed. Professionally, I work for natural resource management organisation and related social enterprises through my company BoaB Interactive.
