Cascadia Works is Here!
I am excited to share that Cascadia Works: Tend, Gather, Harvest, Restore will be out in the world with Empty Bowl Press on September 22nd. Pre-orders are open now. It has been a real honor to be part of this project and to work with Holly, John, and Tele.
“Cascadia Works: Tend, Gather, Harvest, Restore includes poetry and prose by more than 120 contributors who work the land and sea of the Cascadia bioregion. Edited by Tele Aadsen and Jessica Gigot, a Southeast Alaska salmon troller and a Skagit Valley farmer, respectively, it features a diverse range of voices, from orchard workers, farmers, commercial fishers, and field biologists to kelp harvesters, herring protectors, and watershed restorationists. Together, this collection creates a moving, powerful portrait of those with deep connections to the land and sea that sustain us and calls for reciprocity and wisdom in how we care for and steward Cascadia.”
And last, but definitely not least, many thanks to Carly Brock Art for this beautiful cover. Her work and tender eye continue to inspire me.
Join us for these readings!
