I’ve long been a fan of Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass—as well as Elizabeth Gilbert’s The Signature of All Things, which was inspired by Gathering Moss—so it was high time to enjoy this natural & cultural history of mosses! This is a lovely way to gain an appreciation for these rich, resilient, and important works of nature—though to be honest the highlight for me was her consultation at a wealthy (and anonymous) estate where they’re doing everything wrong.
