Winter Horticulture Book Club

Please join us for a discussion of “The Invention of Nature,” chronicling the life of Prussian naturalist, explorer and geographer Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859). Brilliantly written by historian Andrea Wuld, the book describes the daring expeditions of Humboldt and portrays him as a visionary whose ideas forever changed the way we see the natural world. By viewing nature as an interconnected, global system, Humboldt helped lay the foundation for the modern environmental movement. This critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller is one that every nature-lover will enjoy and celebrate.

Light refreshments will be served; those attending are welcome to bring a snack to share.
