Event Summary

The next 2nd Sunday Speaker Series event at Hartman Reserve will be Sunday, July 10 from 2-3:00 PM in the Community Room, and feature local author, Laura Sohl-Cryer. There is no cost for this event and no registration is required.  

Laura’s appearance will include reciting stories and sonnets from her new book, “Remembering the Home Place: Sonnets and Stories From Our Family Farm.” She will share outdoor adventures on the family farm and then lead a brief storytelling/poetry workshop to help attendees form their own stories and poems of outdoor adventures. Laura believes that, “We need to plant our seeds, we need to sing our songs, we need to tell our stories, and we need to share the sonnets in our souls.” Weather permitting, Laura will also lead guests on a walk to the stream at the bottom of the bluff to share a sonnet and story. Iced tea and cookies will be served during the event.
