The legendary countercultural growers who never stopped changing the world. The Garden explores the transformative journey of the 1970s countercultural farmers and growers whose radical practices redefined how we grow and eat today. * Countercultural Roots: Chronicles how a generation influenced by psychedelics, Eastern philosophy, and reactions to Vietnam, the Oil Shocks, and DDT sparked a deep interest in sustainable farming. * In-depth Exploration of Influences: Covers movements like the organic food revolution, Permaculture, back-to-the-land initiatives, radical ecology, and the impact of thinkers like Rudolph Steiner on 1970s communities. * Impact on Today’s Agriculture: Through interviews with key figures, The Garden reveals how these visionary growers, often without farming backgrounds, pioneered alternative agriculture and influenced modern sustainable practices. * A Legacy for the 2020s: Highlights the enduring impact of these farmers, providing inspiration for today’s efforts to reconnect with nature and rethink sustainable living.

Autorenporträt
Matthew Ingram wrote about music at his cult blog, Woebot, which got mentioned in Slate and The Guardian. He penned a column for FACT magazine, and some reviews and articles for The Wire. With fellow blogger Mark Fisher he set up an online forum called Dissensus. Then for a five-year stretch he put out a series of well-received sample-based records as Woebot playing live with his colleagues Ghost Box, and at the ICA and Barbican. Ingram had always followed influences through music and found that those connections started to lead him altogether out of the field. An animator by trade, in 2017 he made a twenty-minute documentary Vitamin C, then, following the same angle, wrote a meaty book Retreat about health and the counterculture. Recently, like many others since the COVID pandemic, he has been interested in gardening. Today he runs the urban gardening blog Sick Veg.
