Braiding Sweetgrass

Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer is a deeply reflective and lyrical work that blends botany, ecology, and Indigenous teachings. Kimmerer, a botanist and member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, explores how plants and nature can teach us about reciprocity, gratitude, and respect. Through personal stories and scientific insight, she offers a powerful perspective on the interconnectedness of all living things and advocates for a renewed relationship with the natural world that is rooted in care and stewardship.
