Author Notes:Collin Pine's passion for gardening is rooted in western Pennsylvania, where his childhood summers were spent putting tomatoes into colanders and raspberries directly into his mouth. His love of nature led him to get a degree in environmental science, before serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in Cameroon. Today, Collin lives in Oakland with his partner and their pet banana slug. When he isn't writing, Collin is probably either tending to his plants, bonding with the backyard birds, or baking zucchini bread.
