Homewaters presents thought-provoking book reading by Dave Montgomery Thurs., Jan. 24, 7-9 pm

Are we using up the earth's soil? Dave Montgomery's compelling, soundly researched book, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilization, will get us thinking about the role soil plays in the rise and fall of civilizations . . . including our own. Join us in North Seattle Community College's North Star Room for this free event.
