Stagtine
Released, May 2024
In Stagtine, Griffith illuminates, through an epic tale of his family's transition from a struggling regenerative farm to a pioneering kincentric rewilding landscape, the gauntlet that is modern life and agriculture, industrial or regenerative, and rather than telling us how to run the race, he suggests that we step back, turn within, and look to all relations for guidance on how to inform our next steps.
The 4 Relationships of Regeneration
Dark Cloud Country
