Join us to discuss "Finding the Mother Tree: Discovering the Wisdom of the Forest" by Suzanne Simard, a pioneer on the frontier of plant communication and intelligence. In this her first book, Simard brings us into the intimate world of trees. She writes in inspiring, illuminating and accessible ways about how trees, living side by side for hundreds of years, have evolved, how they learn and adapt their behaviors and how they recognize neighbors. Trees compete and cooperate with one another with sophistication and display characteristics usually ascribed to human intelligence, traits that are the essence of civil societies. At the center of it all are the Mother Trees: the mysterious, powerful individuals that connect and sustain the others around them.
Adults. Masks will be requested at this program if community COVID levels are elevated.
While COVID community levels are high or medium, masks are requested in the library. Masks are optional when levels are low. For the latest information, see the library's COVID safety page.
