Author of the celebrated biography Aldo Leopold, His LIfe and Work, Curt Meine, presents a contemporary view of the book many consider the foundational text undergirding our ambition to live on land without destroying it, and ourselves. Learn why the Almanac continues to entertain, warn, and lead us toward a tomorrow filled with the “natural, wild, and free.”

This event is FREE and open to the public.

Doors at 2:45 pm.

Sponsored by the Friends of Mi Casita and their non-profit fund at the Taos Community Foundation for support of the U.S. Forest Service educational mission at the historic Aldo and Estella Leopold house in Tres Piedras.

A new book in honor of the Almanac’s 75th anniversary and Friends of Mi Casita, A New Mexico Land Ethic Handbook, will be presented at the SOMOS Salon Friday Oct 25 4:00-5:30 by the authors Richard Rubin, Andrew Gulliford, and Leeanna Torres.
