We know you love outdoor activities, but there are just some days where you might not be able to muster the energy to go for a hike or kayak down the river. Maybe you’re getting over a cold, or simply had a looooong week. We get it.

Don’t worry. You can still connect to the great outdoors through these four ‘green’ books our staff recommends.

We guarantee you’ll learn something new and have the opportunity to reflect on your relationship with the environment. And if it’s a nice day, take one of these books outside and find a relaxing place to read. You’ll be glad you did!
