Collective Reading
Fruituin van West, as part of Reclaim the Seeds Amsterdam
2026
A collective reading about the tiny powerhouses that sustain forests, feed civilizations, and quietly rule the planet. The Triumph of Seeds by Thor Hanson celebrates how seeds shape the cosmos and our daily lives more than we ever realize, how seeds evolved, how they travel, and how they became central to ecosystems, agriculture, and human culture. Texts will be provided. No preparation necessary.
The Perennial Reading Group is a nomadic, ongoing gathering for those drawn to sharing plant wisdom—eco-feminists, gardeners, cross-pollinators, and all who feel kinship with the more-than-human world.
