A Reading with Marilee Foster

at Sagaponack Distillery
5:00 to 7:00 PM

Marilee Foster, Madoo neighbor, farmer, sometimes writer will read a few of her favorite pieces to benefit Madoo. She still recalls and believes in the pleasures of farming, even on land at the eastern end of Long Island, where development is so rampant that her town seems like "a territory under siege." Although she is often tempted to block out mentally the sight of the "architectural eruptions" that surround the farm, for the most part she takes the changes in stride, ignoring the spackle buckets and pieces of cardboard that blow over into her fields from adjacent construction sites and observing with amusement the antics of the seasonal residents. She has written for the Southampton Press for 27 years and is the author of Dirt Under My Nails: An American Farmer and Her Changing Land.
Ticket includes a drink, snack of Marilee vegetables and the lecture. 40% of the ticket cost is being donated to The Madoo Conservancy.
