About the book
The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World is Robin Wall Kimmerer's short follow-up to Braiding Sweetgrass, an extended essay rather than a full-length work. Its anchor is the serviceberry, a native North American fruit tree of the genus Amelanchier, whose June harvest feeds birds and people alike. From that tree Kimmerer builds a meditation on gift economies: what happens when we treat abundance as something to be shared and reciprocated rather than hoarded.
About the author
Robin Wall Kimmerer is a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, a professor of environmental and forest biology at SUNY-ESF, and the author of the years-long bestseller Braiding Sweetgrass. The Serviceberry distills her themes into an evening's read, which makes it the natural gift edition of her thinking.

I go to the Herb Stomp locations on Belmont and Sandy. The staff there have always been knowledgeable, gracious, and welcoming. I particularly like discovering new products that I would not have ordering my purchases from an online vendor. 5/5 would go again.
