Program Description

Event Details

Books play a key role in helping us envision and take steps towards positive life change. And it’s a journey - no one ever arrives, but we can encourage each other along the way.

The Land & Table book club is a way to engage with the core ideas and topics that are motivating a new generation to create a more resilient food system and vibrant local community life. We’ll be reading books about: eating local, self-reliant living, agrarian culture, growing food, culinary history, community resilience, going back-to-the-land, and more.

This is not a book club that will be technical in nature. And if you don’t have a green thumb, you’ll still feel at home. You don’t have to grow your own food or be a homesteader or farmer to enjoy these books. But…you do have to be curious about reviving your connection with the land, with other people, and with the food you eat. And the reality is: tending to those connections is important for all of us.

We meet on the first Thursday of each month and welcome anyone to our meetings - even if you have not read the book we will be discussing.

Registration is encouraged, but not required.

This month we will be discussing: Planning and suggestions for the forthcoming year!

 

Please join us this month for a planning session where we'll be discussing various topics, including:

  • Introducing themes for reading some months, rather than specific titles
  • Possibility of conducting hybrid meetings, with both in-person and virtual participation
  • Suggestions for titles or themes for the next 6+ months
  • Ideas for increasing reach and participation in the book club--such as changing day or time
  • Feedback from former and current participants

 

So bring some of your favorite books to share, and/or a list of titles or topics you are eager to explore!
