Reading Group for Braiding Sweetgrass Meeting on March 7th

After a wonderful evening in December spent discussing Kim Stanley Robinson’s “Ministry for the Future”, we’ll be meeting again on March 7th at 7 PM at the Champlain Valley Unitarian Universalist Society in Middlebury to read Robin Wall Kimmerer’s “Braiding Sweetgrass”. John Elder has once again graciously volunteered to facilitate this conversation. As John writes :

“Braiding Sweetgrass has meant a great deal to many people–including me! Kimmerer’s emphasis on reciprocity with the earth and her chapter on the Great Thanksgiving have profound implications for how we need to lead our lives, both individually and as an earth-oriented community. Such transformation will be essential to our collective capacity to change our economic system as well as help us gain humility and wisdom in our use of technology.”
