Wellesley Reads Together, a town-wide program of reading and discussing the same books, will take place from October 1 to November 13, 2011. The chosen books are "The Good Garden : How One Family Went from Hunger to Having Enough" by Wellesley resident Katie Smith Milway. The book is based on the true story of a Honduran girl who, with her family, learns about and practices sustainable farming techniques used to revive their home farm. The second winner, "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver, examines the economic, social and health benefits of a locally sourced family diet as it chronicles a year in the life of the author's family.

Two books very close to my heart =) How do the discussions work? Are they in person, online?
