Robin Wall Kimmerer is a botanist who is integrating Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) into today’s ecological thinking. Drawing on Indigenous American traditional wisdom, she calls gratitude our first responsibility. From that beginning place of gratitude, she invites us to explore the question, “What does the Earth ask of us?” Join us as together we reflect on how a practice of reciprocity, integrated into relationships of mutuality and interdependence with the more-than-human world, deepens our connections, contentment, and covenantal commitments to the flourishing of all beings.
