Event Details

Join us on Tuesday, September 19th, 7pm when Northern California garden writer JENNIFER JEWELL reads from, discusses, and signs copies of her new book What We Sow: On the Personal, Ecological, and Cultural Significance of Seeds. Readers will find Jennifer’s book to be an insightful, personal, and timely exploration into the wonderful world of seeds.

What We Sow is a tale of what we choose to see and what we haven’t been taught to see, what we choose to seed and what we choose not to seed. It urgently proves that we must work hard to preserve and protect the great natural diversity of seed.

JENNIFER JEWELL is the creator, writer and host of the award-winning podcast, Cultivating Place: Conversations on Natural History and the Human Impulse to Garden. She is the author of The Earth in Her Hands, 75 Extraordinary Women Working in the World of Plants (Timber Press in 2020), winner of The Council on Botanical & Horticultural Libraries 2021 Award of Excellence in Biography, and co-creator with photographer Caitlin Atkinson of Under Western Skies, Visionary Gardens from the Rockies to the Pacific Coast (Timber Press, May 2021). She is an honored interviewer, writer, and a regular keynote speaker at national gardening conferences and events. Her greatest passion is elevating the way we think and talk about the culture of gardening.

The event is free; register at Eventbrite or in the store prior to the evening.
