Meet the Author Event: Katie Boué , October 25

About Katie Boué

Katie Boué believes we all belong in nature and have a responsibility to be stewards of the earth and communities around us. She is a Cuban-American outdoor advocate, gardener, adventurer, and budding bird-watcher. When she’s not out communing with nature, Katie spends time as an award-winning marketing strategist, writer, and content creator. Katie was the recipient of the Hero for the Planet Award at the Outdoor Media Summit in 2017 and has been featured in publications like Outside, Lonely Planet, SELF, the Denver Post, and many others. She earned her communications chops over ten years of social media marketing and digital organizing in the outdoor industry before burning out and finding balance through gardening and backyard stewardship. Born in Queens, New York, and raised in Miami, Florida, Katie currently lives on a half-acre urban homestead in Salt Lake City, Utah, with her dog, Spaghetti, and partner, Brody Leven. 

We will be discussing her book: On Digital Advocacy: Saving the Planet While Preserving Our Humanity

“Whether you hike, bike, camp, climb, hunt, ride, paddle, paint, garden— whatever way you get out and enjoy nature, you leave an impact on the outdoors every time you step out your front door. Every step your boots take down dusty trails, every bolt your clip draws into, every time you cruise down a dirt road, till the soil, you leave an impact. Outdoor recreation inherently leaves an impact on the land, but we can work to offset that impact by advocating for earth in our own circles, online and in our neighborhoods. The question is, can we use the digital space to protect the outdoors while still protecting our human spirit?”

You can order the book and the partnering toolkit here. This toolkit is meant to be written in, doodled on, and loved as you take it along with you on your advocacy journey.

Alternatively, you can buy it from Amazon and use our affiliate link. This means that you pay the same amount for the book through Amazon but a (very) small portion of your purchase goes towards our farm. Amazon Affiliate Link for the book. And here is the Amazon Affiliate Link for the Tool Kit.
