Xavier Fux graduated 1991 with a double major from the University of Western Ontario in Canada in Anthropology and Literature. In 2008, his jouney into permaculture began when he took a three-week course with Stephen Brooks and Evan Marks in Punta Mona in Costa Rica. He went on to receive his certificate in Permaculture Design at the Permaculture Research Institute of Australia, in Ethiopia. Xavier has worked on projects in Tulum and in 2011, he lead a Permaculture project in the Congo, with a 500 strong Pygmy community, which had been evicted from their ancestral lands. He is a founder of and active in Tacotal, a 32 acre eco-village in Orotina, Costa Rica. Xavier is also the founder and CEO of Green Beat, a company dedicated to providing consulting and advisory services in permaculture and green solutions. He currently manages the design and implementation of a rooftop nursery that will produce 3000 lettuces a week for local consumption in Mexico City and a Green Beat farm in Tulum. This talk is about the importance and possibilities of urban farming, and growing your own food locally.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
