Our human-centric way of looking at things in the garden and tasting, hearing, seeing and touching things is just one person's opinion, and hardly represents the consensus of all the living creatures whose home it is.
Today's guest is naturalist Nancy Lawson, whom you may know as “The Humane Gardener,” which is also the title of her previous book.
