Unearthed is the story of how Claire Ratinon found belonging through falling in love with growing plants and reconnecting with nature.Like many diasporic people of colour, Claire grew up feeling cut off from the natural world.
She lived in cities, reluctant to be outdoors and stuck with the belief that success and status could fill the space where belonging was absent.
Through learning the practice of growing food, she unpicked her beliefs about who she ought to be.
Over her first year living in the English countryside and with the first vegetable patch of her own, she finds a pathway back to nature's embrace.
And through growing the food of Mauritius, recording her parents' stories and exploring the history of the island, she also strengthens her connection to her homeland.
