Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer is this month’s green-themed book club read at Merrihew Gardens in Santa Monica. The bestseller by botanist and Citizen Potawatomi Nation member Kimmerer examines what Indigenous knowledge can teach us about being better stewards of the land around us. Discuss the book amid the plants and flowers in the nursery’s relaxing — and apt! — setting.
