First Nature
005 • Sun, Time, & Sustenance
Join host Shawn Berry on a walk through the wilds of Utah as he explores the relationship between the agricultural revolution and humanity’s connection to time, sustenance, and the rhythms of nature. The shift from hunter-gathering to farming brought abundance and stability but also introduced hierarchies, inequalities, and a new way of measuring life itself. How has this transformation shaped not only our survival but also our sense of fulfillment? Reflecting on these ancient rhythms offers insight into what we’ve gained—and what we may have lost in the process. How does our ancient methods of acquiring sustenance in the past inform our relationship to food today?
