There are a lot of different and unique ways to enter the field of nature education, and you'd think that designing knives wouldn't be one of them. But that's exactly the way Joe discovered a passion for wilderness, bushcraft and native culture.

In this episode, we discuss the safety issues that come along with the process of leading jungle experiences, from poison dart frogs to piranhas and more. He shares how people respond to spending time in this diverse and rich ecosystem, learning not just from Joe but also the native peoples of that region who are willing to share their unique connection to rainforest life.

It's always exciting to learn and hear about how forest education differs around the world, and I am very excited to share our conversation with you about Joe's work!
