Green Reads: The Fungus Among Us

Calling all readers! Beat the heat with a cool new book. On Monday July 20, local writer and activist Kit Stolz and soil biologist Dr. David White will guide a discussion of Entangled Life, a book about the ‘fungus among us.’ This bestselling book by Merlin Sheldrake explores the hidden world of fungi, revealing their crucial roles in ecosystems, human health, and technology. We love how it ties into our work in the month of June on soil and composting. At 230 pages (plus notes), it’s a quick and easy read. (There is also an abridged and illustrated version of the book. See purchasing options below.) Our last session, featuring a work by Bill McKibben, was lively and well-attended. We’d love for you to join our continuing conversation.

Please come to join our conversation, which will begin on Monday July 20 at the community room of St. Andrew's Church in Ojai.
