About the authors

Joan Bartley is a grandma, mom, and retired educator who is not yet tired of learning and teaching. Growing up on the Canadian prairies, the exemplary practices of a mother’s and grandmother’s mindful prudence and care of our environment and resources has been foundational to the greening mission happening at the family’s west coast vacation property. With fewer contracts at the University of Manitoba’s Faculty of Education, Joan leaves writing about learning and teaching and the traditional classroom behind for the new learning, practice, and teaching that is evolving when pottering about the family’s forested property and managing a sustainable “island cottage”.
