Suzanne Simard: Finding the Mother Tree
Esteemed forest ecologist Suzanne Simard will log on from British Columbia to discuss her long-awaited book Finding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of the Forest, in which she explores the interconnectedness of trees and plants, as well as her own relationship to nature. Reflecting on a conversation he'd had with the author a few years back, The Stranger's Charles Mudede writes, "I reached the conclusion that Simard spoke like someone who had been raised by trees, in the way Tarzan was raised by gorillas."
