Come Say Hello.
Books are wonderful on shelves. They're even better when they start conversations.
Follow Eileen Colette and Cisco Mills as RootsOMG travels to libraries, book festivals, fairs, community events, garden-centered gatherings, and places where good stories and good people meet.
Find us somewhere beyond the website.
Some stops are all about books. Some have gardens, pumpkins, vintage finds, holiday lights, or thousands of people wandering by.
Wherever the table lands, the invitation is the same: stop, browse, talk with us, ask about the stories, and stay long enough for a real conversation.
Where we'll be next.
The calendar can keep growing. So can this section.

Akron Home & Garden Show
RootsOMG brought books into a weekend built around homes, gardens, ideas, improvement, and thousands of reasons for people to stop and talk plants.
Event Website
Columbus Book Festival
A full weekend centered on authors, readers, booksellers, exhibitors, Indie Author Alley, and a city full of people who came specifically because they love books.
Festival Website
Ohio State Fair
RootsOMG joined the vendor experience at one of Ohio's largest annual gatherings— bringing books, merchandise, and a very different kind of garden conversation into the fair.
Ohio State FairThis part should eventually get crowded.
Booth setups. Readers. Signings. Strange plants. Great conversations. Evidence we actually left the house.
Event Gallery Growing Here
As you upload photographs from each event, this can become a real RootsOMG road gallery rather than letting the best event pictures disappear into old social-media posts.
Books travel farther when people carry them.
We hope one of these stops brings RootsOMG somewhere near you. If it does, come find the table. There is always room for one more conversation.
