Practical Reverence – A Conversation with Robin Wall Kimmerer

In this conversation, Potawatomi botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer
celebrates the serviceberry—both as a plant of joyous generosity,
and as a living model for a gift economy that recognizes the sacred
nature of the Earth. Delving into her latest book, which elaborates
on an essay she wrote for us in 2020, Robin speaks about how a
sense of “enoughness” can radically shift our habits of
consumption; and how the ethical and pragmatic principles of the
Honorable Harvest can invite us to honor a currency of relationship
over a currency of money, helping us embody a practical reverence
for the Earth and Her abundance.  Read the transcript.
