    Fantastic conversations about the future of forests and wood
    Brilliant conversations about the ecological, architectural, economic contexts of forests and building with wood in the 21st century. I’m an amateur woodworker, not a professional designer or architect, and I found these to be enormously engaging and thought provoking conversations.

    Informative for woodworker that loves the natural world.
    Great topics for anyone interested in woodworking and design. I love the merger of science, ecosystems, economics, politics and everything else into the topic of wood. I wish they were longer and went into even more depth on each episode.
