Nature Book Club

Nature Book Club meets either via zoom or at the Arboretum from 6:30 to 8 pm every 2 to 3 months on a Monday evening. One or two titles are chosen as the focus of discussion – however, reading the books is not a prerequisite for participation!

Upcoming Gatherings

The next meeting of the Dyck Arboretum of the Plains’ Nature Book Club is Monday, September 22, 2025 at 6:30 pm via Zoom.

Currently Reading…

Sea of Grass: The Conquest, Ruin and Redemption of Nature on the American Prairie by Dave Hage and Josephine Marcotty.

Due to the length of this title, this will be the only book for this meeting. However, if desired, members might also enjoy the novel The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese. 

Check out the books at your public library (Hesston Public Library has them on Interlibrary Loan!) or get the books here: https://bookshop.org/lists/nature-book-club
