The source of our activism is equally as important as the action itself.  Although fear, anger, outrage etc. can certainly serve us at times, action initiating from our connection within nature is an effective and sustainable model for environmental change.

She has also lived and worked on two organic farms and has a longstanding interest in permaculture and whole system design. She is deeply committed to a mission of visioning and creating a healthy future for all through reconnecting to the earth and our biological heritage.  She currently lives on her homestead with her husband where they raise chickens, grow an abundance of good food and many of the medicinal herbs she uses her in practice.

They have also grown seedlings from the oldest tree in the world, the bristlecone pine Methuselah.
