20 Jun 2026 Char Chit Chat – biochar and more from New Zealand Dylan’s first face to face podcast with an update from Phil in Ashhurst about what he is up to (S1E2 featured Phil). We had just returned from Hamilton with John after Fieldays 2026 and I was spending two days staying with Phil on my way to Wellington. Phil has been at this property, soon after arriving from the States, for 21 years. It was great to have a tour of his permaculture influenced block of around 1 ha in size.
