Sustainability Now! | Barbara Hurt | Dendrifund & Brown-Forman | Treeconomy | 11-25-24
Update: 2024-11-25
Description
On this week’s program, your host, Justin Mog, talks bourbon (for perhaps the first time on the program!) with Barbara Hurt, Executive Director of Dendrifund (https://www.dendrifund.org) and Sustainability Innovation Leader at Brown-Forman. Dendrifund is a non-profit seed fund created in partnership with the Brown family and Brown-Forman back in 2012 that is cultivating common ground to renew our wood, water, and grain ecosystems. A recent example of that is the white oak initiative (https://whiteoakinitiative.org) and the initiative to bring rye back to Kentucky.
We take a deep dive into the opportunities for more sustainable supply chains for one of Kentucky’s most iconic industries and the role of an organization like Dendrifund to convene those interested in activating a true "three legged stool" systems approach to sustainable development. A forester, a farmer, and a distiller might not otherwise cross paths, but they do with the help of Dendrifund!
As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!
Sustainability Now! is hosted by Dr. Justin Mog and airs on Forward Radio, 106.5fm, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Monday at 6pm and repeats Tuesdays at 12am and 10am. Find us at http://forwardradio.org
