What if the future of housing isn’t high-rises or cul-de-sacs—but homesteads, gardens, and walkable villages where food is grown just steps from your door?In this episode Neal sits down with Judith Horvath of Fair Hill Farm—a former corporate professional turned agroecologist who’s helping reimagine how we live, grow, and build community.Judith’s journey began humbly with a few backyard chickens and tomato plants—but after facing resistance from her suburban HOA, she chose to go all in. Trading suburban restrictions for rural freedom, she and her family embarked on a bold journey into homesteading, permaculture, and regenerative land design.Now, more than a decade later, Judith is not just growing food—she’s part of a modern back-to-the-land movement. From backyard transformations to agri-centered community planning, her work helps people reconnect with the land and each other in deeply nourishing ways.Tune in to hear her powerful story, lessons learned from the land, and her vision for an agrarian future that brings resilience, health, and connection back into our homes and neighborhoods.———————-This podcast isn’t just about ideas—it’s about action.
