Pages : 154

Book Description
This book of short stories and essays is about sunrises and wildness, about wildflowers and walks. It is also a book about you, about me, and about the ecosystem regeneration possible through learning to see the wild gifts of the ordinary.Wild Like Flowers is a collection of personal reflections from a wild land that utilizes the magical gifts of being, connection, reciprocity, and community to probe the larger concerns of the modern agricultural movement-Regenerative and Commercial Agriculture-in lyrical and meditative prose that is a true celebration of life itself.This book presents a choice to stop; to nurture awareness; to learn a language of relationship instead of dominance-of community not colonization. A choice that understands life and the landscape of our place as something we commune with-a relationship-instead of seeing it as a Natural Resource or its abundance as Ecosystem Services.Drawing on life in his Wildland-a 400-acre process-led and emergent farm that nurtures ecosystem regeneration, carbon sequestration, nourishing foods, bio-diversity, and species habitat-the acclaimed author, emergent conservationist, and Savory Institute Hub Leader, Educator, and Consultant, Daniel Firth Griffith, provides a poetic portrait of the powers, magic, and rich abundance harvested in his family's Regenerative Wildland.
