Local author Phyllis Root and her friend and photographer Kelly Povo will discuss and read from their new book: Searching for Minnesota’s Native Wildflowers: A Guide for Beginners, Botanists, and Everyone in Between.

This is a wonderfully illustrated, family-friendly guide to Minnesota’s native wildflowers and how to find them. Phyllis and Kelly chronicle the ten years they spent exploring Minnesota’s woods, prairies, hillsides, lakes, and bogs for wildflowers, taking pictures and notes, gathering clues, mapping the way for fellow flower hunters. Featuring exquisite photographs and the story of their own search as your guide, the authors place the waiting wonder of Minnesota’s wildflowers within easy reach.

This is the monthly meeting of Wild Ones St. Croix Oak Savanna. We are a nonprofit advocating for native plants and natural landscaping. Our meetings are free and everyone is welcome.
