A plant ecologist who has studied grizzly bear habitat, wildfire behavior, and sagebrush communities, Susan J. Tweit grew up rescuing wildflowers from development sites and picking up roadkill to stash in the freezer for study. After “evolving” into an award-winning writer, speaker, and teacher, Tweit began collaborating with her husband, sculptor Richard Cabe, to design “living landscapes” that restore our connection to nature in our everyday landscapes, from industrial areas to city parks and private gardens. She writes for magazines from Audubon to Popular Mechanics, and is the “Whole Life” columnist for Zone 4 Magazine . Follow her search for a whole and mindful life on her blog, Walking Nature Home, and check out her books and landscape restoration work on her website.
