Transformative Beauty: Ben Futa in conversation with Montreal-based floral designer Marc Sardi

To welcome the fullness of June, this week on Cultivating Place, guest host Ben Futa is back and in conversation with Marc Sardi, a Montreal-based scientist turned floral artist who has reinvented his relationship with the natural world, and himself, along with changing careers. It’s an authentic conversation exploring how rediscovering our most authentic relationship with plants also allows us to know ourselves, and our world, better. It’s lush, it’s life-affirming, and it’s grounding in all the best ways. Listen in and Enjoy!Cultivating Place now has a donate button!
