Fernwood is thrilled to welcome back Dr. Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home and Nature’s Best Hope, to speak virtually about his latest book, The Nature of Oaks.
Oaks sustain a complex and fascinating web of wildlife. The Nature of Oaks reveals what is going on in oak trees month by month, highlighting the seasonal cycles of life, death, and renewal. From woodpeckers who collect and store hundreds of acorns for sustenance to the beauty of jewel caterpillars, Tallamy illuminates and celebrates the wonders that occur right in our own backyards. He also shares practical advice about how to plant and care for an oak, along with information about the best oak species for your area. The Nature of Oaks will inspire you to treasure these trees and to act to nurture and protect them.
This event will take place via Zoom. Registrants will receive a link to join virtually before the presentation.
Signed copies of Tallamy’s books will be available for purchase at Fernwood’s gift shop.
