What’s all this, now?

Who is writing this?
Many call this author of this newletter Flore (they/them or li). They are from Mountains and are fed by many Rivers. The plants are their dear friends. Once ago, they studied Environmental Sciences and Place-based Ecology and played with the concept of sustainability as a facilitator, educator, and teacher.
Currently, this queer Haitian intellect enjoys making with their hands, studying processes (various), and tinkering with the practice of freedom, personal & collective.
Materials: fibers, fire, fabrics, botanical pigments and dyes, medicinal herbs, paper, threads, and memories.
Living occupied Southern Pomo and Coastal Miwok Land.
