Date: June 16, 2020

Time: 11:00 a.m.

Location: Landrum Library

Speaker: Jon Barker of the S.C. Forestry Commission

Join Jon Barker as he presents The Tree Farmer including a children’s book reading and lesson. 

In The Tree Farmer, a grandson confronts his grandfather, a tree farmer, about how he can grow trees with so much care, only to cut them down.  But as they walk together through the trees, they discover the majesty of the forest and enjoy the life journey of each tree.  The Tree Farmer takes young readers on a magical journey through the forest, in a tale of the gifts of trees and our responsibility to care for trees, generation to generation.

This presentation is part of the Landrum Library’s Summer Reading Program for children and is open to the public and all ages.
