Book Launch of Charlie, Winnie and the Bluebirds
​

Myrna Pearman's new book,  Charlie, Winnie and the Bluebirds has arrived at last, and it's everything we had hoped for: the full history of Ellis Bird Farm alongside bright photographs detailing our journey. EBF hosted Myrna's official book launch as part of our Opening Day festivities and we had a full house for the event. The book is now available for purchase in our gift shop, or you can purchase it online here for $19.95.
