This is awesome.
I just realized something weird and serendipitous. Robin Wall Kimmerer sounds just like the ethnobotanist Nancy Turner (look her up). The content of their words, the sing song, the respect, the intellect, the soft motherliness.
She is a gift to this world.
Love ❤❤❤
What a gift this woman is. I'm reading "Braiding Sweetgrass" now, and it's one of the most beautiful reads I've ever read in my life. Thank you, Robin, for so much, so much!, beauty,.
I've been listening to Braiding Sweetgrass as an audiobook. Robin's writing and her narration of her writing moved me to tears more times than I care to count.
Just finished Braiding Sweetgrass and have an overflowing love for Dr.Kimmerer's work and stories. Thank you for sharing this, she really is like a mom to all of us.
Every fiber of my being needed to watch this today. I have been living in Florida for too long and cannot get back up North. My soul longs to walk the woods of the Catskills. Thank you, Robin, for bringing me on a walk through the forest with you. 🤍🌱🍂
Beautiful
Wonderful! She has so much wisdom to offer - if only more people would listen!
To meet her irl would be a great honor! I would love to walk around with her and geek out over plants and their stories 🥰🥰
Her ability to tell a story is beautiful.
you, your love, the knowledge you share with us keep me grounded and present continuing to persist. your wisdom and teachings are the resilience i think of when everything becomes to unravel! thank you forever ❤ the world is so lucky to have you and we are so lucky to have the world
Beautiful
Reading 'Braiding Sweetgrass' was a magical and humbling experience. But being on a virtual nature walk with her is just mesmerising. her passionate words indicate an intimate relationship with Nature. It is pure and inspirational. So glad to have come across this human 💚💚💚
Dr. Kimmerer is a treasure...Brilliant...learning so much from her..
Trump 2024!
I love how passionate she is, you can feel the pure child like excitement as she guides us through this little forest adventure ☺️ and oh my gosh when she talked about the moss and what they can teach us 🌱💛
This video is just brimming with wonder and joy! I'm so glad I discovered it. I would love to go on a nature walk with Robin.
Are these tours still available?
I am reading Braiding Sweetgrass now. I read one chapter at a time. I need time to reflect and digest. This book has changed my daily walks, and outdoor time time. What a joy to “stumble” upon the author. Love her voice, informal presentation, wisdom and love of our earth and all that is. Northern California fan.
Just discovered your channel. Great stories, thoughts, and images!
We love you Robin and what you are teaching us..... I am in the Hawaiian Native Plant Society and planting Hawaiian Native plants rather than the invasive plants you see around hotels here. You being poetry to everything you do.
What a beautiful being... a perfect teacher as well. Thank you. I just put her book on hold through my library.
I'm about to as well!
Prof. Kimmerers' joy, respect and love for the earth come through her narration of this beautiful walk through the woods. Her knowledge of medicine, plants, her people's language and culture, the manner of teaching are so inspiring. Would love to meet her in person! I also really enjoyed the way she closed the walk with gratitude for the earth and nature.
i’m in bed recovering from an illness and i can’t get outside right now. i don’t have words for how healing this video was. it’s such a gift to hear her share her ways of walking through the world, like having a friend share their most cherished memories and stories of the trees and the birds. i look forward to the day when i can go outside again and walk in the woods.
Im in the exact same situation, I can’t wait until I’m able to get back outdoors

Bagus banget saya suka
Wow, Beautiful Upload friend. keep it up. Thank you for sharing this to us. Greetings from Korea
Most plants that pop up in areas where they aren’t supposed to be found, are there b/c the wind blows the seeds…or the birds eat the seeds and poop out what they can’t digest. My yard is riddled with bittersweet and other plants that I didn’t put there, but the birds sure did. Lol!
What a beautiful woman you are with a respectful loving descriptive language to describe this wonderful place in nature. What a wealth of knowledge. You are a gift describing the generosity of nature 🌱
Thank you, Robin for all that you give. Somehow it feels like you are sent as a mother to us all
Wow, that's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
Thankyou, wonderful stories. Love your books. ❤🐦❤
These videos are so incredibly, peaceful. The video makes world better. Thank you so much 💙
hello✌✌✌✌✌
Thank you Robin , for Braiding Sweetgrass and your knowledge
So very amazing. I'd love to be a student of hers. Thank you Robin Wall Kimmerer.
First of all "Braiding Sweetgrass" is one of my favorite books ever. I have it on audio book too where Dr. Kimmerer does the reading and I think her voice has healing waves. One of my biggest inspirations as a writer and as a citizen of the planet. 💚💚💚💚
You wrote EXACTLY what I wanted to say so I am saying Ditto here.
Same! It's not just one of the best, it's the best. Has been life changing for me.
I’m listening to it just now, and her narration is extraordinary. Few books are narrated SO well by the author, where the emotions stemming from personal experiences shine in their voice.
Same here. I have Braiding Sweetgrass in all 3 media, only one of two in my collection upon which I own all 3 media.
Very interesting and refreshingly non- pseudo-dramatic!!
Wonderful teacher, love her way of thinking. Braiding Sweetgrass is an incredible book
Stunning, calming, makes my heart and mind sing
Thank you for the wonderful story of the forest. I am presently reading your book “Braiding Sweetgrass”. Very much enjoy the book. i live in the Boreal forest, and appreciate your insights
Man, she’s so cool
Reading Braiding Sweetgrass.Its slow reading but i love it.You nred to be at peace to read it.LReading about the pond bit.love it
Wow!!!! I’m just reading braiding sweet grass and listening to your voice and knowledge is such a pleasure that I’m definitely going to watch your video over and over again. Thanks so much for sharing
I love how enthusiastic she is about it, I could listen to more teachers if they actually seemed like they cared for their subject of study, rather than droning on about it. I love her! Her book has made me see nature in such a different light and has awoken a remarkable interest in plants. :)
My experience with science instruction has been so different from yours--and from Robin Wall Kimmerer's experience. I almost stopped reading "Braiding Sweetgrass" in the first chapter, because it seemed wrong--and unfair. I have a degree in botany from University of Idaho, mid 1990s (north-central Idaho, great plant diversity, and in the Nez Perce Nation's lands) and was able to also take many courses in zoology, soils, forestry & ag, writing, and human nutrition. Out of 40 instructors, maybe 2 droned, or were poorly-informed or narrow-minded? Not a single scientist was rigidly focused only on perfectly repeatable findings in their research! They were always on the lookout for new observations, especially directly in nature. Talking with a classmate in General Botany (who became a pharmacist), we discovered that although many students in this course hated how they couldn't predict what would be on exams, we found greater value in the professor's untameable, ecologically broad approach.
Molly B. Farneth's "Hegel's Social Ethics" and Sarah Schulman's "Conflict Is Not Abuse" are probably the two books that can save whatever is left of "the left" that has been taken over by neoliberal intersectionality, progressive capitalism, and an exclusionary politic that moralizes the commodification of emotional labor.
'Small and adaptable' - what a beautiful message for the human creatures at this time. Humility is the virtue we need right now. Thank you sister.
Reading her book Braiding Sweetgrass was such a pleasant thing,and hearing her speak is even more sweeter❤ She probably "reminds you of things you didn't know you'd forgotten🍂"
