We’re bringing the worldwide scythe community together. Where we can hear from — and learn from — each other. Whether you’re new to using a scythe and want to know more about this incredible hand tool… or whether you’re already an experienced mower and would like to hear from other accomplished scythe users… this podcast is where that happens. We'll also discuss how to restore and maintain meadows for wildlife habitat, and how the scythe is an ideal tool for that purpose. Please join us as we interview some of the leading figures in the scythe community. Happy Mowing!
