Maria Mitchell Assoc – The Nature of Nantucket – Rosie Agnew LaBonte

Host Joanna Roche of the Maria Mitchell Association sits down with Rosie Agnew LaBonte, author of the new field guide Nantucket Nature. Rosie shares her Nantucket origin story, her deep connection to the island's natural world, and the inspiration behind creating a guide designed to help residents and visitors better understand the plants, animals, and ecosystems that make Nantucket so special. They discuss the research and passion that went into the book and how it can help foster a greater appreciation for the island's unique environment. Nantucket Nature is available through the Maria Mitchell Association and its Aquarium, as well as at Sconset Square on Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Follow Rosie on Instagram @wildrosenantucket and learn more at wildrosenantucket.com.To learn more about the Maria Mitchell Association visit https://www.mariamitchell.org/.
