February 1, 2021 Why Deadwood Should Be Removed, Langston Hughes, Ben Hur Lampman, How to Start a Garden, Botanicum by Kathy Willis, and the Language of Trees
Today we celebrate a Harlem poet who loved children and flowers.
We'll also learn about a newspaperman who wrote a fantastic essay about a harbinger of spring: the skunk cabbage.
We'll hear some thoughts on how to start a garden.
We Grow That Garden Library™ with an extraordinary book that takes us on a tour of brilliantly curated plant life.
And then we'll wrap things up with a little obscure verse about the language of trees.
