Promise of Paradise - Episode 7: Meca Wawona

In this episode, we'll hear from Meca Wawona, a tireless environmental activist and homesteader who was instrumental in founding the California Conservation Corps on the philosophy of humanity working in concert with nature, rather than in the "Man versus Nature" mode she saw at the time. Wawona homesteaded on McNab Ranch, then at Greenfield, where she inculcated the next generation with the values that were so precious to her.
