Virtual Nature Book Club | Bad Naturalist

January 9, 2026 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Attend this virtual session to discuss Bad Naturalist by Paula Whyman with Arboretum staff.

Join us to discuss Bad Naturalist: One Woman’s Ecological Education on a Wild Virginia Mountaintop by Paula Whyman. This book is a memoir about Paula’s attempts to restore native meadows on a 200-acre mountaintop, the obstacles she encountered, and the discoveries she made along the way. Paula is actually a parent of a Haverford alumnus, and this book club session is in preparation for her author visit on February 10th!

In this book club session, we will discuss our perspectives on the book, and reading it prior is suggested. The event link will be emailed to participants in the confirmation email generated from program registration.
