SUMMARY:Regenerating Earth Book Tour with Kelsey Timmerman
DESCRIPTION:Join Patagonia Charlotte for an evening of conversation about living regeneratively with bestselling author and journalist Kelsey Timmerman as he presents his new book Regenerating Earth: Farmers Working with Nature to Feed Our Future. \nDoors Open: 6:30 PM | Event Start: 7:00 PM \nTimmerman comes from a long line of farmers and lives in rural Indiana\, surrounded by monocultures of corn and soybeans. Motivated by the challenges he saw at home—polluted water and air\, and fraying ties between land and community—and a belief that humans can be a force for good\, he set out to find a more hopeful path. \nOver five years and across five continents\, Timmerman met farmers\, Indigenous leaders\, and activists. From Hawaiian kalo patches to the Amazon rainforest and Maasai cattle lands\, Regenerating Earth is a compelling\, deeply personal\, and surprisingly joyful journey that explores what it means to live regeneratively. Not just in how we farm\, but in how we connect to each other and the planet. Through stories full of grit\, heart\, and humor\, Timmerman reminds us that healing the Earth isn’t just possible\, it’s already happening\, and we can all be part of it. \n Books will be available for purchase and signing. Light refreshments will be served.
