Our very survival in the face of the inevitable collapse of modern civilization, Peter suggests, depends on us remembering ancestral skills and strengthening the native plant populations that sustain us.

Peter is the founder and Executive Director of Rewild Portland, a local non-profit that creates cultural and environmental resilience through the education of earth-based arts, traditions, and technologies.
