Do you love books? We do! And we are brimming with excitement over Riverview's first ever Garden Therapy Book Club. We will begin with a "Meet and Greet" on Saturday, January 26th from 1-2pm. Here you'll get a chance to introduce yourself and learn a little about your fellow book club members while enjoying light refreshments provided by Riverview.We will be discussing our first book Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life by Barbara Kingsolver on Saturday, February 23rd at 1pm.
"Novelist Barbara Kingsolver once wrote, "If we can't, as artists, improve on real life, we should put down our pencils and go bake bread." In Animal, Vegetable, Miracle, she manages to do both, applying her literary skills to a new food environment. In her seamless diary narrative, Kingsolver tells how she and her family relocated to southern Appalachia after suffering through years of drought in Arizona. The purpose of the move was simple: The Kingsolvers sought to "live in a place that could feed us" by growing their own food and living among a community of local organic growers."
