Join The Garden of Readin'!
By popular demand, TGP has successfully formed a reading group about gardening! Readin' topics may include organic gardening, food policy, sustainability, nutrition, food insecurity, agriculture/landscaping, health/fitness, living off the land, etc. The goal is to take what we read and educate ourselves about sustainable living in this community. Come join the discussion!
We'd love to see you at our next meeting! See our calendar for the next date and location.
The Last American Man - March 1, 2012
Our third meeting was March 1, 2012 at Gravity, Fort Collins Brewery. We discussed what we had learned from reading Animal, Vegetable, Miracle and if we had adopted any changes to our lifestyle or eating habits. The group has decided to read The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert. The next meeting will be on April 12, 2012 at 7pm at the Fort Collins Brewery restaurant, Gravity.
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle - Jan 12, 2012
Our second meeting was January 12, 2012 at the Mayor of Old Town, Fort Collins. We had a discussion about what we had read thus far in The Omnivore's Dilemma and how it had an impact on each of us personally. Collectively the group decided to move on to a new book: Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver. The plan is to read the book by our next meeting, which will be on Thursday, March 1, 2012 at 6pm at the Fort Collins Brewery restaurant, Gravity.
