What have we done so far at Sierra Youth?

We’ve done tabling events and have even went into schools to give out seeds! Just look at us in the picture below!

Book Club

Our first, virtual, nationwide book club was a success! 📚

Sierra Youth was excited to announce our monthly book club where participants discuss books they are currently reading. Participants brought a book, a cup of tea, and their good company. First, we had a short introduction about who we are and the forces that drive us at Sierra Youth.

We suggested themes surrounding climate, conservation, social issues, etc. and the books did not disappoint.

Even those without books were welcomed in with hopes a recommended novel sparked their interest!

Sierra Youth is excited for our next book club with the date still to be announced.

 

See you soon,
