Heather C. Flores, a certified permaculture
designer, holds a BA degree in ecology, education, and the arts from Goddard College. Her book, Food Not Lawns: How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community, is a joyful permaculture 
lifestyle manual, inspiring readers to apply the principles of the "paradise garden"—simplicity, resourcefulness, creativity, mindfulness, and community—to all aspects of life.
