@museumofscience: What if conservation started with berry picking? 🍓 Renowned ecologist and author Robin Wall Kimmerer invites us to see foraging not as extraction, but as connection. When we engage with the land through traditions like berry picking or sweetgrass harvesting, we don’t just witness nature, we fall in love with it. #RobinWallKimmerer #Conservation #Berries #Environment #LearnSomethingNew
love her! she helped me get over feeling like humans are a parasite on earth. she says we are part of the world. humans are a part of earths cycles. we are part of the population control for some of our meat animal, we are seed spreaders for the foods we eat, we are part of the sweet grass’s ecosystem!

I was in a depressive rut and genuinely picking berries was one of the only things that made me feel present and calm.

she's right, but really this is just an academic version of "touch grass"

When my mental health was at its lowest, I started picking wildflowers and making flower crowns that I left around town for little kids to find and wear. It was the most healing thing I could have done for myself 💕💯

I spent this morning eating figs still warm off the tree with my neighbor and it was magical. And I get desperately jealous seeing my friends from home pick blueberries every August. Omg.
