“In a world focused on serious issues such as climate change and the redesign of energy, food, and human shelter systems… Mia and Kevin’s work shines as a functional and joyful solution to the seemingly massive scale of the human footprint. eating the plants that are available, and growing wild in your neighborhood and region is more than a symbolic gesture towards honoring ecology… it returns you to the ecological system as a functioning member, like any other bird, bug, and mammal.”
—Rebecca Burgess, educator and author of Harvesting Color-How to Find Plants and Make Natural Dyes
Hello there!
I recently received a copy of your book and I absolutely love it! Great selection and variety of plants and description of who to use them. I just ordered two more copies for other family members who live in the Bay Area as Christmas gifts. It’s very helpful to have clear photos of the plants to better identify them. Great work!
Thanks!
