I wrote the chapter named “Stop and Smell the Sage,” which is accompanied by the brilliant interview of Terry Tempest Williams (who also discusses Sage). We wanted to include it because Sage is fundamental to the story of Flamingo. It was one of our first Candles, and the first scent in our bath products. And we have mountains of it growing at the Estate.
