Greg Peterson

“What if there was a garden and fruit tree in every yard?” This is a question that Greg ponders every day. For over 32 years he created on of one of Phoenix's first environmental showcase homes for urban farming. The 1/4-acre yard featured a primarily edible landscape with over 80 fruit trees, rainwater and greywater harvesting, solar applications, and extensive use of reclaimed and recycled building materials. What we now call an Old Growth Food Forest. He is the founder of UrbanFarm.org and the host of The Urban Farm Podcast that has over 800 episodes. The podcast is designed to help fulfill Greg’s passion of spreading the word about growing your own food and sharing new and seasoned gardeners epic stories. 1991 PDC Grad Been offering PDC's for Drylands most every year since 2006 in Phoenix, AZ 2020 - Certificate in Permaculture in Media - PINA Masters of Urban & Environmental Planning - 2006 - Arizona State University
