What can the planet’s oldest plants teach us about our humanity and our place in the world?

For this unmissable event Robin Wall Kimmerer, acclaimed thinker, writer and director of the Center for Native Peoples and the Environment, will be in conversation with journalist Lucy Jones, author of the best-selling book Losing Eden.

Living at the limits of our ordinary perception, mosses are a common but largely unnoticed element of the natural world. Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book Gathering Moss is a beautifully written mix of science and personal reflection that invites us all to explore and learn from the elegantly simple lives of mosses. How do mosses live? And how are their lives intertwined with the lives of countless other beings? Kimmerer explains the biology of mosses, while at the same time reflecting on what these fascinating organisms have to teach us.

Drawing on her experiences as a scientist, a mother, and a Native American, Kimmerer explains the stories of mosses in scientific terms as well as within the framework of indigenous ways of knowing. The natural history and cultural relationships of mosses become a powerful metaphor for ways of living in the world.

In conversation with Robin will be Lucy Jones- author of Losing Eden, which explores how and why connecting with the living world can so drastically affect our health. Urgent and uplifting, Losing Eden is a rallying cry for a wilder way of life, one which might just help us to save the living planet, as well as ourselves.
