HABITAT AND CONSERVATION MANAGER

Samm believes that when we develop deep respect and care for non-human organisms, a responsibility to steward the land becomes part of all that we do—informing our actions and decision making. Her focus in environmental stewardship began through mixed media art, leading to the study of Indigenous environmental perspectives and practices, in addition to public education, community-building, stewardship, and behavioural change.

Samm has worked in various types of garden spaces over several years. She uses outreach and education to share perspectives on working with the Earth, not against.
