National Environmental Education Week at ArtPlantae came to a close on Saturday with a wonderful conversation about herb woman Jeanne Baret and the expedition led by Louis-Antoine Bougainville (1766-1769). My conversation with the gracious Glynis Ridley was held in the Discussions forum on the Facebook page and has been posted below for you to read here.
I would like to thank all contributors to EE Week 2011. I will always be grateful to them for sharing their time and expertise with us. The following individuals and organizations made it possible for ArtPlantae to bring attention to topics connecting plants, natural science illustration, and our oceans:
