Join us May 2nd (this Saturday!) and May 16th as we give some love and care to our perennial beds around our library. Between 9 and noon we will w**d and amend our beds. We’ll also be accepting native perennial plant donations (bring them if you have them!) and spot planting.

Bring your favorite garden tools, sunscreen, and hat and the library will provide snacks and drinks and a bit of lunch to end the day. Please find information and a sign up on our website (signing up will help us send alerts with any weather changes).

See you at the library!
