Adult Virtual Programming Room

With deep compassion and graceful prose, botanist and professor of plant ecology Kimmerer encourages readers to consider the ways that our lives and language weave through the natural world.

As a botanist and professor of plant ecology, Robin Wall Kimmerer has spent a career learning how to ask questions of nature using the tools of science. As a Potawatomi woman, she learned from elders, family, and history that the Potawatomi, as well as a majority of other cultures indigenous to this land, consider plants and animals to be our oldest teachers. As she explores these themes she circles toward a central argument: the awakening of a wider ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgement and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the world. 

One meeting: Monday, October 18, from 8:00-8:45 p.m. Registration required.

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer is available in print, hoopla e-book and e-audiobook and OverDrive/Libby e-book and e-audiobook.
