Reading and Discussion

Book Discussion: Farms and Gardens – My Garden (Book)

Live Event
September 13, 2022: 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Vermonters know as well as anyone the rich metaphors inherent in farming and gardening. These authors dig deep to explore the philosophical roots, family dynamics, and personal enrichment associated with tending and growing.

This event features a discussion on the essay collection My Garden (Book) by Jamaica Kincaid with Rachael Cohen, a freelance editor specializing in environmental and regional studies, a teacher of writing, literature, and natural history, a caller of contra dances, and a farm hand.

She has a Bachelor of Arts in English from Cornell University and a Master of Science in Environmental Education from the Audubon Expedition Institute/Lesley University.

When she’s not teaching for the University of Michigan’s New England Literature Program, held each spring at a camp in New Hampshire, she’s a caretaker in southern Vermont.
