Gaia's Sentinels

Gaia’s Sentinels depict sacred or meaningful land stewarded by Kentucky women. Teresa wanted to highlight women who steward large tracts of public or private land—be it as a farmer, land manager, scientist, forester or private landowner in Kentucky. I traveled to each location chosen by the steward, and sat with them as they spoke about their experiences on that land. These women were generous with their time and extraordinary in their wisdom. Their intimate knowledge of the land taught me so much and the connection they have with the land feels vital and authentic.
