An impact that resonates

Becky Elder has been putting pen to paper since she was writing poetry as a young girl. Her approach to nature, her observations and her knowledge braid together into delightful passages that remind readers to stay connected, stay tapped into the heart of the natural world and stay open to the mysteries of nature. 

As a gardener, she wrote about the world beneath the soil surface and she flew with the birds and butterflies above tree canopies. Her first book, Raven in the Garden; a Front Range Gardener’s Journal, was published in 2007. A chapter was submitted to the Pikes Peak Writer’s Conference’s Paul Gillette Memorial writing Contest in 2003 and won the first-place award for Creative Nonfiction. Becky’s writings have been published in national publications and have been carried as regular columns in local papers over the years. She has a large, devoted following that receive her monthly offerings. 

Becky Elder is a locally renowned and respected lecturer and permaculture instructor/experienced gardener. She continues to write and is working on her second book, Letters to my Grandchildren. Becky continues to present local programs up and down the Colorado Front Range and works in the local permaculture courses through Pikes Peak Permaculture.
