Robin Wall Kimmerer

In our hectically paced media landscape, the tale of Robin Wall Kimmerer and her beloved book Braiding Sweetgrass is a story of human miracle. First published in 2013, Braiding Sweetgrass joined the best seller list in 2020, having risen into its readers hands person by person, gift by gift, whisper by yell. The book’s subtitle “Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants” struck a chord in our society in 2020 as we re-examined how we want to relate and began to seek guiding knowledge the way roots break through concrete.
