The Fobes Garden Club really has out done themselves for today's Herby Hour program. Some of the herbs used were grown right here at the library. I'm sure all of the registered attendees are going to absolutely love it! Thanks again to the Fobes Garden Club, we're so lucky to have you 💐

Attention local homeschool families:
This school year, the Fobes Memorial Library wants to give our monthly Homeschoolers' program a refresh! For this first meet up of the year we will be hosting a curriculum and materials swap. So bring your outgrown curriculum, books, flashcards, and other learning supplies to swap. While caregivers are swapping items, we'll have an activity for the kids to do.

This meet up will be a great time to learn about all of the resources at the library and to let us know how we can support our homeschooling families. (If you don't have anything to swap you are still welcome and we still want to hear from you!)

Please register by completing the form so we can be sure to have enough space and supplies.

Thank you!

A library patron generously donated some gorgeous peaches! Make a donation and take a quart basket of peaches home. There's even a recipe included. It's a peach of a deal! (I'll see myself out... 😬)
