Henry Clay Mitchell was the “Earthman”/ gardener. Although I couldn’t find this quote anywhere.And I spent a lot more time than I should looking. It’s probably on Pinterest.
Thank you for doing the legwork that I was too lazy to do, Ben Van! I now see some of the books that he’s written. “Any Day” and “The Essential Earthman”. They seem to be relatively recent books, so perhaps he is still with us? I could find no bio info on him. — YUR
