the study of the relationship between people and plants


For millennia, we have evolved with and depended on plants in a relationship that has transformed our history as a species and the planet we share.

As a botanist, I'm fascinated not only by the miraculous properties of plants, but by the centuries-old connection between people and plants.

Exploring and translating this link anew for an audience never fails to inspire awe and enthusiasm for the amazing adaptive and powerful resource that is the plant kingdom.
