In a time of disintegrating certainties, many of us have big questions: "How should we live?", "What work should we do?" David Fleming's entertaining vision of a post-growth economy built on the play, humor, rootedness and reciprocal obligations of a rich culture has long inspired optimism and action. Sterling College and the School of the New American Farmstead will be diving into Fleming's work this winter with a book discussion and symposium and we would like for you to join us!

Wednesday, Nov 15 - "Surviving the Future" Book Discussion is happening from 6:30-8:00pm in the Reading Room at the Brown Library. You can request a free copy of the book so that you may take part in this conversation by contacting NewAmericanFarmstead@sterlingcollege.edu
