Nicolette Ratz is a Wisconsin-raised poet, naturalist, and seasonal worker. Recently, she alternated between conducting research for an organic cranberry farm (and getting wet pushing cranberry boats for harvest) and assisting climate science on the Greenland Ice Sheet. Her poetry explores liminal spaces, mushroom shadows, isolation, and dream-speak, with a particular interest in integrating myth and science. But you can also find her jotting down jokes or spinning wool. Her poems have appeared, or are forthcoming, in The Citron Review, Ghost City Review, Bramble, and Cider Press Review.
