The Land Knows Me by Leigh Joseph

The Land Knows Me by Leigh Joseph

Join Held by the Land author Leigh Joseph and her children in The Land Knows Me, an educational, hands-on introduction to Indigenous plant knowledge.

Leigh Joseph is an ethnobotanist, researcher, and community activist whose aim is to contribute to cultural knowledge renewal in connection to Indigenous plant foods and medicines. As part of this mission, she founded Sḵwálwen Botanicals, an Indigenous business creating small-batch botanical skincare products based in British Columbia, Canada. Honoring traditional Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) plant knowledge, they incorporate wild-harvested plants and organic, high-quality ingredients. Leigh shares her Indigenous plant knowledge in written form in her book Held by the Land. She is a member of the Squamish Nation.

Natalie Schnitter is an illustrator and artist living on the unceded traditional territories of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) Nation. Having graduated with a major in illustration from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in 2016, Natalie now enjoys using digital, oil paint, acrylic, watercolor, pencil crayon, and ink professionally. A lover of storytelling, Natalie’s work has been featured in films and tv shows—like Goosebumps, Fresh, The Imperfects, and more—across North America. Growing up on Vancouver Island, nature has always been a huge part of Natalie’s life and the inspiration behind her work. In her free time, Natalie enjoys painting, rock climbing, and spending time with her friends, family, and two cats.
