Today we focused on plants! Dori was back and joined us on a plant walk on the bluff. It was fun to learn to identify plants and find many edible species. We even enjoyed a big salad with a tasty balsamic dressing.


Part of our 'getting to know plants' involved doing a sit spot where we journaled about a plant at the bluff that is speical to us.


"It's a sign of respect and connection to learn the name of someone else, a sign of disrespect to ignore it. And yet, the average American can name over a hundred corporate logos and ten plants. Is it a surprise that we have accepted a political system that grants personhood to corporations, and no status at all for wild rice and redwoods? Learning the names of plants and animals is a powerful act of support for them. When we learn their names and their gifts, it opens the door to reciprocity" -- Robin Wall Kimmerer
