Welcome back, Soil Cousins! With the crisp air and the changing seasons, it's the perfect time to reflect. If you haven't had a chance to listen to our series in partnership with the Atlanta History Center, we've got you covered! 

In this fourth installment of our four-part series, "Botanical Black History: Visiting the Landscapes of Black America," we recap key moments from the series. We've uncovered hidden gems within the Atlanta History Center, particularly the invaluable Cherokee Garden Library, a treasure trove for anyone passionate about horticulture, botanical art, and cultural landscapes. 

Join host Colah B. Tawkin as we revisit key themes and insights from the series, closing with highlights of three significant and diverse books from the Cherokee Garden Library collection—two of which were authored by previous podcast guests! This episode is both a celebration of our journey and an invitation to continue exploring the profound impact of Black culture on our natural world. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a curious learner, the Cherokee Garden Library is a resource that will inspire and educate you for years to come.
