Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets, Takoma, present Dave Goulson to discuss his new book A Buzz in the Meadow: The Natural History of a French Farm.
While many of us dream of starting a new life in the French countryside, not everyone buys a fixer-upper and turns it into a wildlife sanctuary. Goulson, a British biologist, author of A Sting In the Tale, and award-winning founder of The Bumblebee Conservation Trust, chronicles his transformation of Chez Nauche from a “derelict farm†in a beautiful landscape to a complex and thriving ecosystem of birds and insects.
