Friends,
Have you ever been so filled up with the wonder of a place that it wants to spill out as a song? Well, here is the songbook for Cascadia, the land that stretches from Southeast Alaska to Northern California and from the Pacific Ocean to the Continental Divide.
Cascadia Field Guide: Art, Ecology, Poetry blends art and science to celebrate this diverse yet interconnected region through natural and cultural histories, poetry, and illustrations. Organized into 13 bioregions, the guide includes entries for everything from cryptobiotic soil and the western thatching ant to the giant Pacific octopus and Sitka spruce, as well as the common raven, hoary marmot, Idaho giant salamander, snowberry, and 120 more.
Join us for an evening of poetry and celebration, as several Oregon contributors, including Charles Goodrich, Pepper Trail, and Joe Wilkins, share poems and writings from the collection. Grass Roots Books will be on hand with copies for sale.
