About the Author

Karen Harwell spent her early years living in the beauty and majesty of the Colorado Rockies. She received her Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Colorado. She has done graduate study in philosophy, cosmology and consciousness at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, completed a six-week Earth Literacy program at Genesis Farm in New Jersey, and was certified in the study of permaculture at Occidental Arts and Ecology in California. She currently lives in Palo Alto, California, where she has made her home into a model of sustainability and where she engages the neighborhood children in the Dana Meadows Organic Garden. Joanna Reynolds grew up in what is now called Silicon Valley, but which used to be called The Valley of Heart's Delight for its fertile land and acres of fruit orchards. She spent many years working in education, developing curriculums and facilitating courses and programs designed to inspire participation in the conscious evolution of culture. As a co-director of the Exploring a Sense of Place program, Joanna spent many years helping to hone the curriculum, contributing from her extensive experience and love of the natural world.
