Milkweed Books is owned and operated by Milkweed Editions, an independent nonprofit literary press. Initially opening in 2017, the bookstore’s mission is “to identify, nurture, and publish transformative literature, and build an engaged community around it.” They prioritize originality, marginalized voices, and books exploring our relationship to place and the more-than-human world.
“At MCFM, we will be selling a selection of Milkweed Editions titles that we believe best exemplify the publisher and how we can meaningfully provide a resource for the neighborhood growing around us. We are a site of connection, community, and exploration.”
