FFRPL presents Books Sandwiched In: review of "Soil: The Story of a Black Mother’s Garden" In-Person
Tonya Noel will review Soil: The Story of a Black Mother’s Garden by Camille T. Dungy
Soil recounts the author’s seven-year struggle to diversify her garden in the predominantly white community of Fort Collins, Colorado, against the neighborhood’s strict policies. She uses her garden as a metaphor to illustrate other national issues of diversity.
Tonya Noel is a self-described Planeteer, Black Joy, and revolutionary love enthusiast. She is a co-founder of Flower City Noire Collective (FCNC585). She is an alum of the Soul Fire Farm “train the trainer” BIPOC farmer immersion program. She was named a 2018 City Paper WaveMaker for her urban farm and community work.
