Book Signing – Heather Jo Flores

Join Heather Jo Flores, author and co founder of Food Not Lawns, at the The White Rose for a talk and booksigning!

This event is geared toward empowering local communities not just to grow their own food, but also to share the surplus produce, seeds, plants and knowledge with their community. Heather Jo Flores is a Chicana activist, permaculture author and educator, and interdisciplinary artist focused on the connection between physicality and creativity, with emphasis on healing self and Earth through creative expression and community interaction. She wrote Food Not Lawns; How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community and co-founded the original Food Not Lawns group in Eugene, Oregon in 1999. This summer she is taking the Edible Nation tour across the Northern USA and next spring she will tour the Southeast.
