'Putting Down Roots' Author Event in Oconomowoc
Marcia Carmichael, author of
Putting Down Roots: Gardening Insights from Wisconsin's Early Settlers, will talk about the book at Books & Company in Oconomowoc. She will also be available to sign books.
A visually inviting slice of cultural history, "Putting Down Roots" is also a practical guide to the gardens of 19th-century ethnic newcomers for today's sustainability-minded heritage gardeners. Featuring the re-created 19th-century
heirloom gardens at Old World Wisconsin, "Putting Down Roots" is a story of holding fast to traditions while adapting to changed circumstances in an adopted home.
