For November, the Afternoon Book Discussion Group will be meeting at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10th to discuss 'The Serviceberry' by Robin Kimmerer.

More about this nonfiction book:
As Indigenous scientist and author of Braiding Sweetgrass, Robin Wall Kimmerer reflects on the practice of harvesting serviceberries and the concept of reciprocity central to Indigenous wisdom. She contrasts this with the dominant economic system rooted in scarcity, competition, and resource hoarding. Kimmerer highlights how the serviceberry tree, by sharing its abundance with its ecosystem, embodies a model of interdependence and mutual support. This ethic of reciprocity, she argues, shows us that true wealth arises from relationships, not self-sufficiency, and encourages us to reimagine our values in a way that nurtures both people and the planet.

To join the Afternoon Book Discussion, please ask for a copy at the circulation desk or check it out on Libby!

The Afternoon Book Discussion typically meets on the second Tuesday of the month, is open to adults and is free to participate.
