September Eco-Book Club

September 6, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

The read for August is: The Nature of Oaks: The Rich Ecology of One of Our Most Essential Trees, by Doug Tallamy

The Nature of Oaks reveals what is going on in oak trees month by month, highlighting the seasonal cycles of life, death, and renewal. From woodpeckers who collect and store hundreds of acorns for sustenance to the beauty of jewel caterpillars, Tallamy illuminates and celebrates the wonders that occur right in our own backyards. He also shares practical advice about how to plant and care for an oak, along with information about the best oak species for your area.

The discussion will begin at 11am. We may be indoors or outdoors depending on the weather. Bring a bagged lunch to eat after the discussion before joining the group for a hike through the trails of the Nature Center.
Our book club is a collaborative program with the Naples Library, and book copies are available at their location, and through OWWL, STLS, and Monroe County Libraries.

This program is free and open to the public, but advanced registration is requested.
