Our Kindred Home

Alyson Morgan, a sexond generation Haitian, grew up feeling disconnected from her roots and suffering from the trauma of racism. To heal herself, she found a connection with the natural world around her: slowing down, respecting the seasons, and growing or foraging plants I'm her local area. Beautifully photographed, with plant monographs, illustrations and recipes, Our Kindred Home explores our deep ties to the natural world and offers regenerative and sustainable ways of living. Alyson helps readers better understand the deep grief and systemic harm that stems from disconnection with nature and provides pathways for healing.
