Braiding Sweetgrass
Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book is divided into five sections, titled “Planting Sweetgrass,” “Tending Sweetgrass,” “Picking Sweetgrass,” “Braiding Sweetgrass,” and “Burning Sweetgrass.” Each section is titled for a different step in the process of using the plant, sweetgrass, which is one of the four sacred plants esteemed by Kimmerer’s Potawatomi culture.
