Chris joins me for a fascinating discussion about the political importance of land, its historical context, the current inefficiencies of farming, and the liberation people can find in reclaiming land and the capacity to produce their own food.

We also discuss the historical contexts of peasantry and offer new narratives which could galvanisee urbanised populations to rebuild their relationships to land, food and independence.
