SAVANNA

SHAPING THE HUMAN HABITAT

I set out to learn how to manage savanna vegetation, the human habitat from innovative grazers and foresters around the world. With the help of Hanna Hart, Byron Palmer, Mark Sindt, and Susie Schroll, I used that information to start two ranching businesses that have made the land much more biodiverse while also producing more food. I did not realize that by shaping human habitat, he would learn how that habitat has shaped humans and shaped our history.
