“All About Nature” book club with moderator Bev Chase will meet to discuss “Braiding Sweetgrass” by botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer who has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass, Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take us on “a journey that is every bit as mythic as it is scientific, as sacred as it is historical, as clever as it is wise” (Elizabeth Gilbert). This book is available at St. Tammany Parish Library, and Barnes and Noble.
