Friends for the Abbott Marshlands is happy to support a Nature Book Club. Join us for a series of informal discussions about some wonderful writing about the natural world. It’s a fun way to spend an evening once a month in light-hearted conversation and community!
Except for the holidays, we usually gather on the fourth Thursday of the month at 7PM. Specific dates and titles for the rest of 2022 are indicated below.
Meetings are currently held online via Zoom and links are sent to all members of our bookclub email list prior to each session. If you would like to be added to the our book club list, just send an email to [email protected].
