KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Jim Gale – Food Forest Abundance
At age 19, Jim first learned about the power of writing down his goals. From the practice of inspired visioning,
he became a 4-time All American and National Champion wrestler.
After college, he moved to Hawaii, backpacked through 37 countries, lived with the Maasai, explored cultures, and searched for his next inspired vision.
He wrote his goals again at age 29, which included being retired in 3 years. Jim went on to create a mortgage company that reached $1.3B in sales in 3 years, leading him to early retirement and the achievement of another life goal.
He bought a boat, lived on the ocean for a year, and then moved to Costa Rica to build eco-villages where he discovered permaculture. It changed his life and he realized he needed to bring it to every household in the world. That idea became Food Forest Abundance.
Jim is an inspirational speaker who speaks on food supplies, self-reliance, sovereignty, entrepreneurship, mindset and freedom.
A Food Forest is simply a forest of food. The systems we create follow the principles of what you find in a forest. Everything In the forest grows abundantly and regeneratively without any insecticides, pesticides or fertilizer.
It’s almost as if the way it was created was the way it was meant to be.
As a happy band of permaculture practitioners and entrepreneurs, we’ve lived every lesson we teach. From planning and growing a food forest, to building a passive solar greenhouse, to rehydrating an eroded field and stream bed. We’ve even created rainwater harvesting systems for our own homes.
Our lessons are rich with real-life experiences and an absolute passion for sharing what we know. We exist to help people grow their own food.
