On showing and being shown plants ‐ a guide to methods for more‐than‐human geography

Urban Farm DB summary

This paper proposes a methodology for more-than-human geography, focusing on understanding plants as agents through a "showing and being shown" approach. Drawing on ethnographic research in community gardens, the author demonstrates techniques like walking, talking, doing, and picturing to engage with human and nonhuman guides. The study identifies limits to understanding plants without specialist botanical training.
