After the Fires: Cultivating Place in LA with Studio Petrichor

It’s been a full year since the devastating fires in Los Angeles, CA. Many lives were lost, and many acres and homes were burned. Many gardens, cultivated spaces, and gardeners were profoundly affected. This week, Cultivating Place checks in with two humans who are cultivating their place with care in the wake of this catastrophe. Leigh Adams and Shawn Maestretti are Studio Petrichor, based in Los Angeles. They join us this week to share so much more. Listen in! Cultivating Place now has a donate button!
