About this episode

Ken Somerville interviews Peter Roediger about his work with the Biochar Coalition and his passion for fire ecology and soil health.

Conversations In Ken’s Café Peter Roediger of Biochar CoalitionSeason 4, Episode 02Peter's interest in fire ecology began with lightning-bunch-grasses and tree moss ablaze. Since then, he has dove into traditional methods of forest and rangeland stewardship on fuel crews, shepherding, and drip-torching throughout Mendocino County. What drives him about char is the unmistakable fertility and feeling when his hands are in the soil.https://biocharcoalition.org/https://www.instagram.com/biocharcoalition/Your HostKen Somerville “It’s All About The Biology”https://www.instagram.com/kensomerville/ https://twitter.com/KenSomerville1https://www.itsallaboutthebiology.ca Contact email itsallaboutthebiology@gmail.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/ken-somerville-6b9945239/https://www.facebook.com/itsallaboutthebiologytourHelp support the mission: patreon.com/user?u=104510089Discount codes available at: https://www.itsallaboutthebiology.ca/discountcodesMusic by Andy…
