Was bedeutet die Verbindung zwischen Mensch und Pflanze für dich?
„Cultivating a connection to plants means, for me, taking care of them in gratitude for their generosity by protecting their presence and the ecological networks they are embedded in, such as pollinators and soil health.“
Welche Pflanze inspiriert dich besonders?
„I love trees and walking the earth beneath their shade. Imagining walking through urban space, surrounded by trees, birdsong, and stretches of greenery overgrown with spontaneous plants like wild strawberries, clover, mosses, daisies (Bellies perennis), self heal (Prunella vulgaris), blackberries, and so many more, fills me with hope. Their no-maintenance presence would transform concrete surfaces into living environments by inviting creatures to hide and feed on them while hydrating and regenerating exhausted soils. And wouldn’t we all be happier if we could snack on self-picked wild strawberries every now and then?“
