Lorraine Johnson is a Toronto-based writer, editor, community advocate and cultivation activist. Her work focuses on people and communities growing plants, ecological health, and connection to nature and to each other. Her recent series of talks entitled Unsettling The Garden addresses arguments raised by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report (of Canada) and is the topic of this episode. As the report emphasizes, "Reconciliation between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Canadians, from an Aboriginal perspective, also requires reconciliation with the natural world." In this discussion, Lorraine describes the many ways that native plant gardening and related practices help to restore our relationship with nature and encourage kinship with plants and wildlife.
