We have a class coming up in May at the Palmetto Branch. Hope you can join us!

Has Square Foot Gardening always been the same as it is today? Not quite! Square Foot Gardening has evolved over the last 50 years to make gardening simpler for you.
When Mel added 10 major improvements to his original method, he created the All New Square Foot Gardening book. Here are the first five:

🏡Location – close to a house
⬆️Direction – up, not down
🌱Soil – Mel's Mix
📏Depth – only 6 inches depth
🚫Fertilizer – don't need it

The 4th edition of All New Square Foot Gardening is the result of decades of experiments and improvements, many coming from you, our loyal readers. It contains the most up-to-date information to help you enjoy an efficient way of gardening.

📚 Join Us for an Inspiring Author Talk at the Palmetto Library! ✨

If you love powerful stories, rich history, and meaningful conversations, you’re invited to a special free community event at the Palmetto Library.

📅 Monday, February 9th
⏰ 6:00–7:30 PM
📍 Palmetto Branch Library

We’re excited to welcome Derick Gillard, author of two compelling works that shine a light on overlooked voices and lived experiences:

📖 Living in the Shadows of a Legend: Unsung Heroes and Sheroes Who Marched With Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
📖 The Longest Four Years of My Life: A View from the Field by a Black Fed in the Trump Administration

Mr. Gillard’s writing invites readers to explore the human stories behind pivotal moments in our nation’s history — the kind of knowledge that deepens understanding and sparks meaningful dialogue.

Bring a friend, spread the word, and join us for an evening that promises insight, inspiration, and community connection.

📌 This event is free and open to the public.
