Join me on Thursday April 28 at 6:30 p.m. at the Derby Neck Library in Derby, Connecticut for a slide illustrated talk on the intriguing stories that trees tell at the confluence of nature and culture. The oldest and largest living things among us, trees play a significant role in our collective and individual memories. From the Charter Oak creation tale of Connecticut to penknife carvings in the smooth, smoke-gray bark of beeches we'll discuss the ways in which trees give context and meaning to our lives.
The Derby Neck Library is a delightfully welcoming place, the oldest part of which was completed in 1907 with funds from Andrew Carnegie and local philanthropists Wilbur F. Osborne and Frances Osborne Kellogg. It's located at 307 Hawthorne Ave Derby, Connecticut. For more go to: https://derbynecklibrary.org/
