About this episode
In this episode, we're joined by Chloe & Max from Liberation Tools to discuss the question of heirloom tools and designing tools to meet the needs of marginalized and non-traditional farmers. The modern era's model of disposable tools is inherently unsustainable & exists as a blip in the history of human existence. Relearning the processes of developing tools and developing networks for resources around tool development.
Liberation Tools is a subsect of Soul & Soil Project based in the unceded Tsalagi (aka Cherokee) territory of Western North Carolina. Find out more about their work at: https://www.soulandsoilproject.org/ . We seek to support racial justice and food sovereignty through the free distribution of high quality, hand forged garden tools to BIPOC who grow food or want to start.
Liberation Tools can also be found on Instagram @liberation_tools & their tools can be bought at: https://www.artgardenavl.com/
