Our next book is Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. This nonfiction collection of essays blends Indigenous Potawatomi teachings with botanical science to explore reciprocity, gratitude, and our relationship with the living world. It invites us to think about ecology, stewardship, and belonging in a deeper way.

This month’s book offers a reflective and nature-centered perspective that brings a new dimension to our conversations together.

Please note that some topics may feel activating. We encourage everyone to take care while reading and engage at a pace that feels right for you.
