Join us for a good book and a tasty bite

Jim Tolstrup, executive director of the High Plains Environmental Center here in Centerra, literally wrote the book on how to help native plant and wildlife communities flourish within our human communities. And now that his book has just been released in paperback, it’s a good time to celebrate the breakthrough practices Jim helped develop as part of the team that turned Centerra into Colorado’s very first Community Wildlife Habitat, certified by the National Wildlife Federation.

We hope you’ll come out to hear Jim read from his new book, get your very own signed copy and enjoy light bites and beverages from the delicious Hub Café, courtesy of your friends at Centerra.
