This event is no longer on sale.

Tuesday May 14

1:30 PM  –  2:30 PM

Come join the conversation! Annie Jansen, Penn State Brandywine faculty librarian, will be leading a book discussion of The Triumph of Seeds: How Grains, Nuts, Kernels, Pulses, & Pips Conquered the Plant Kingdom and Shaped Human History. In The Triumph of Seeds, award-winning author and biologist Thor Hanson explores both the natural and cultural history of seeds - why they are so dominant in nature, and why we are so utterly dependent upon them. Discover Tyler’s new Edible Garden after the discussion. Books will be provided for participants to pick up at Tyler Arboretum. This program is a part of Longwood Gardens’ Community Read – a program designed to encourage reading for pleasure and start a conversation.
