Episode #28 - Craig Ambrose at Atamai Village

Resilience.  How do we build it into our communities?  Can you build resilience from the ground up?  Well Craig Ambrose from Motueka, NZ thinks so, as do many like minded people throught the world.

A short distance from the small town of Motueka, in the northern part of New Zealand’s South Island, Atamai Village is well underway in its goal to provide homes, food and economic security for 50 families in a well-planned, permaculture-inspired development.

Please join me as we listen to Craig talk about his family's efforts to help establish this resilient community.
