For our Garden Book Club Winter Meeting we will be discussing The Invention of Nature: Alexander von Humboldt's New World by Andrea Wulf. Please join us on Thursday, February 11 from 6:30-8pm at Soupergirl, located right next to the Takoma metro stop.
The acclaimed author of Founding Gardeners reveals the forgotten life
of Alexander von Humboldt, the visionary German naturalist whose ideas
changed the way we see the natural world and in the process created
modern environmentalism.
Please RSVP to washingtongardener (at) rcn.com or at the book club event page at facebook.com/WashingtonGardenerMagazine by February 9, so we know how many chairs to hold for our group.

- The Rambunctious Garden: Saving Nature in a Post-Wild World by Emma Marris
SUMMER
