Author of the sensational Braiding Sweetgrass—a book that forever changed nature writing—Robin Wall Kimmerer returns with The Serviceberry. A bold and inspiring vision for how to orient our lives around gratitude, reciprocity, and community, based on the lessons of the natural world, The Serviceberry is an antidote to the broken relationships and misguided goals of our times, and a reminder that “hoarding won’t save us; all flourishing is mutual.”

All tickets, with the exception of a limited number of Pay What You Can and complimentary tickets, include a copy of The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World. Books will be mailed by our bookstore partner to the ticket holder’s address.
