TGoG Podcast 016 – An Interview with Jonsey (Wind-blown, dust and dirt)

April 24, 2011 @ 17:15 By Gavin Webber 2 Comments

TGOG+podcast+logo+new+1400+v2I had a chat to Doug Jones this afternoon, who is the author of Wind-blown, dust and dirt.  Jonesy has had to stop blogging due to illness, which he talks a little about during the interview, but loves to read other green and sustainable living blogs.

We also talk about his area, his community, how he designed and built his passive solar house, and about his veggie patch.  Jonesy also talks about what keeps him going each day.

Thanks mate for a great interview!

Addendum: Jonesy passed away in June 2011 after a battle with cancer.  Here is my tribute post.

    Hi Gavin and Jonesy. Thanks to both of you for this podcast. I was really sorry when Jonesy gave up blogging, so it’s been nice to hear a bit more of his story from the horse’s mouth, so to speak. Most enjoyable.
