We have a large selection of unique books including several books about Indiana.

  We wanted to show you our favorite new book, 101 Trees of Indiana, which is published by IU Press and has photographs by local forester Ron Rathfon, who works at the Purdue Extension farm over by Dubois (SIPAC).
  Richard loves the up-close photos which point out often overlooked identification details. He also appreciates that author Marion Jackson mentions habitat in his descriptions and the county locations marked on the Indiana map accompanying each listing.
  These books are $19.95 and you can pick them up at the shop or we can ship them, just call (812-338-3688) with your credit card. You can also order them directly from our online store
