We’re positive that Wild Book Club wins the most fun and enlightening book-discussion-group award. Once or twice a season, we read a nature-based work of fiction or non-fiction, and gather in the woods, around a campfire to talk about it (except when the weather sends us inside). Wild Book Club is free, for women, 90 minutes on a weekday afternoon.

Wild Book Club: Friday November 15, 2024, 3:30-5pm

Reading: Woodsqueer: Crafting a Sustainable Rural Life by Gretchen Legler, which “is more than ‘a back to the land’ memoir; it is a spiritual autobiography of a women in relationship with the earth in all its power,” says Terry Tempest Williams (author of Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place).

Wild Book Club is free. For women. Bring your friends.
Also bring paper and pen, and a camp chair or blanket to sit on.
And you’re welcome to bring food and drink.

TESTIMONIAL

“Wild Book Club is a special gathering of women (often at the edge of the forest around a campfire with shared treats) who enjoy exploring books related to the natural world. Every circle is a combination of new and old friends that adds variety, new insights, experiences, and strengthens a powerful and growing network. The discussions are lively, thought-provoking, and always a time to reconnect to nature and our place in this magical world.”
