Anne Biklé

Anne Biklé is a science writer and public speaker focusing on the connections between people, plants, food, health, and the environment.  A bad case of plant lust draws her to the garden where she coaxes garden plants into rambunctious growth or nurses them back from the edge of death with her regenerative gardening practices.
 
She co-authored The Hidden Half of Nature: The Microbial Roots of Life and Health with her husband, geologist David Montgomery.  From garden to gut, the book combines memoir, science, and history to tell the story of humanity’s tangled relationship with the microbial world through the lens of agriculture and medicine.
 
Her work has appeared in magazines, newspapers, and radio and her soil-building gardening practices have been featured in independent and documentary films. 
 
Anne and David are currently working on a new book project about the connections between soil health and human health.
