Mullein

The issues are organized by seven seasons. Chose a season to explore! Right now we are in the Winter Lull. The writing offers both easy stories and paragraphs of more complex details- something for every audience!

The format is inspired by my many years as an educator. I only draw life that I have seen signs of myself. This is a project for the general good, but it cannot continue without your support- please subscribe! Subscribers get issues and bonus content by email before they are published here. ❤ B

Winter Lull

After being raised by research scientists, and trained by top academic institutions, I landed and grew up in the semi-feral culture and environment of 1990s Providence, RI. I worked for many years as an art and general education teacher, and in 2015, with the experience of 40 years, I started to feel capable of building culture for the next generation. With COLORHODEISLAND I am attempting to activate the understanding that we are, at every moment, alive within a living environment, and to replace stories that frame the natural world as a separate, exotic, and dangerous location to be accessed primarily as a consumable resource.
