REV On Air: Transforming Our Collective Landscapes Into Sustainable Havens Edwina von Gal

Edwina von Gal creates landscapes with a focus on simplicity and sustainability for private and public clients around the  world. She has Frank Ghery and Toshiko Mori, on projects for Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Richard Serra, Larry Gagosian,  Robert De Niro, and many others in the environmental, design and art  communities.
In 2008, while designing the park for The Biomuseo Panama, Edwina founded the Azuero Earth  Project, promoting native species reforestation on Panama’s Azuero Peninsula, perhaps the first  of its kind to work without synthetic chemicals.
In 2013, Edwina went on to create the Perfect  Earth Project, a nonprofit organization based in the USA dedicated to raising consciousness  about the dangers of toxic lawn and garden chemicals, and the importance of planting native  species, to protect the health of people, their pets, and the planet. Perfect Earth Project educates homeowners and professionals in nature-based landscape management techniques. She lectures across the United States advising individuals, organizations, and communities  on chemical free practices.
In March of 2021 she launched a new initiative, Two Thirds for the  Birds, a call to action to landscape and environmental professionals to make all their projects  habitat friendly. She is currently converting her own property, Marshouse, into a laboratory and  teaching center for whole and healthy landscape practices.
Today Cora and Edwina discuss the importance of re-wilding our land, how to think differently about your lawn, pesticides, fertilizers and many other amazing things.
