Seasons of a Wild Life
Seasons of a Wild Life is an intimate journey through the seasons of the year and a love letter to our diverse and ancient human-nature interactions. Naber shares her stewardship practices and daily lessons from the plants, wildlife, and weather on her farm in the Virginia Highlands, interspersing these with mytho-spiritual stories of nature deities, animal symbology, and seasonal festivities from cultures around the world.
Part journal, part guidebook, Seasons of a Wild Life is a treasury of naturalist observations, ancestral wisdom, and herbal remedies. Journaling prompts at the end of each chapter will inspire you to closely attend to the rhythms of nature in your own environment and deepen your personal connection to nature.
