🌱 We're only one week away from Summer Reading 2026: Plant a Seed, Read! Our Kick-Off Party is next Tuesday, June 2, 2-6pm, but our online registration is open now at alphapark.beanstack.com. (You can register online and still come to the party!) 🌱

🐮 This year's theme explores how farms grow food that nourishes our bodies and libraries grow ideas that nourish our minds - and both connect us to our communities and culture. 🍅🥦🥚🫜🌽

We have so many fun things planned for all ages this summer, starting with a farm animal petting zoo, face painting, a tractor, and more surprises at the Kick-Off Party! Visit alphapark.org for more info, or alphapark.librarycalendar.com to sign up for programs.
