• In episode 7 of “Wartime Homefront Essential Skills,” Marjory Wildcraft and Geoff Lawton talk about how to turn barren land into a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem.
• Lawton discusses land-selection checklist, water management (swales, dams), animal integration (chickens as natural tillers), solar-powered structures, compost toilets and floating garden rafts for off-grid living.
• This episode also explores plants with multiple uses (e.g., turmeric, chocolate pudding fruit), iron-rich springs for soil health, ridge-track grazing and community-driven permaculture models.
• In episode 8, Dr. Kai-Fu Lee predicts that 30-45 percent of global jobs will disappear in 15-20 years due to automation as AI worsens inequality — concentrating power in tech elites while displacing workers across industries.
• This episode talks about how open-source AI tools (e.g., robotic weeders, gardening assistants) could empower self-sufficiency, and how Dr. Kai-Fu Lee’s cancer battle reshaped his views on work, purpose and balancing tech with sustainability.

What’s in store for you in Episode 7

In episode 7 of “Wartime Homefront Essential Skills,” slated for May 2, Wildcraft, renowned homesteading expert and founder of The Grow Network, is joined by permaculture legend Geoff Lawton. Get ready to step into a world where water flows with purpose, abandoned landscapes burst into lush abundance, and every element works in harmony.

Lawton, recognized as the foremost authority worldwide in permaculture, shares an enlightening presentation detailing his methods for analyzing landscapes and uncovering their latent potential. He also guides viewers through a tour of his own homestead, highlighting practical examples of his principles in action — demonstrating how nature can be harnessed to do most of the heavy lifting.

Viewers can expect to learn a lot of things from Episode 7, including the following:

• Lawton’s checklist for selecting land — water access, contours and “mainframe assets” that make permaculture thrive.
• How swales, dams and “dribbler pipes” turn erosion into irrigation, drought-proofing the landscape.
• How chickens act as natural tillers — manuring soils and prepping food forests with zero fossil fuels.
• Solar-powered sheds, compost toilets and floating garden rafts.
• A biodiversity wonderland where every plant serves a purpose.
• Iron-rich springs, ridge-track grazing systems and community-driven design.

This episode brings you everything you need to know to properly purchase a property on which to grow your food. Lawton reveals how to transform struggling landscapes into thriving, self-sustaining ecosystems — using water, animals and smart design to create food abundance.

What’s in store for you in Episode 8

In episode 6, slated for May 3, Wildcraft sits down with Dr. Kai-Fu Lee, a pioneer in AI with over 30 years of expertise, former president of Google China and author of the groundbreaking book “AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley and the New World Order.” Together, they dive deep into the impending AI revolution, its devastating impact on jobs and the surprising role of backyard farming in a tech-dominated future.

Viewers can expect to learn a lot of things from Episode 8, including the following:

• Why Dr. Lee predicts 30-45 percent of jobs worldwide — both white-collar and blue-collar — will vanish in the next 15-20 years.
• How AI displaces jobs instantly via cloud computing — no infrastructure needed unlike past industrial revolutions (steam, electricity).
• How AI will worsen inequality, concentrating power in the hands of tech billionaires while leaving millions unemployed.
• Shocking MIT research, which reveals that food prices — not politics — trigger mass uprisings.
• How technology could help small-scale growers, but only if it remains open-source and community-driven.
• How Dr. Lee’s battle with lymphoma changed his perspective on work, life and purpose. 

This isn’t just another tech discussion — it’s a survival guide for the AI age. Whether you’re a farmer, a tech worker or simply someone who eats food, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and equip you with actionable insights.
