Author Event: "The Roots of Flower City" by Camden Burd (virtual) In-Person
*Registration is open*
Wednesday, February 5, 6:30-7:30 PM
For Adults
A link will be sent out prior to the meeting. Camden Burd explores the economic and ecological significance of Rochester plant nurserymen over the course of the 19th century in The Roots of Flower City. As the first boomtown in the United States, Rochester was an embodiment of 19th century market economies and social reform movements. Connected to the eastern seaboard by the Erie Canal, the city’s unique economic, cultural, and environmental conditions fostered and sustained a vast and influential commercial plant nursery industry that attracted the nation’s most prominent horticulturists and nurserymen.
