Library Type

Public

Cost and Funding:

Most programs are free though we have had to charge for some that required pricier supplies such as our Rain Barrel Workshop

Partnership:

Penn State Master Gardener Program

Description:

The library partners with local members of the Penn State Master Gardeners to host monthly programs. Programs have included Caring for Your Gardening Tools, Edible Flowers, Nature Walks to ID plants, Composting, Invasive Species, and Gardening as You Age. The Master Gardeners have also been instrumental in helping us set up our new Pollinator Garden. Because of the variety of topics, the club itself can fit into just about any literacy. Our nature hike touched on Basic: learning about local and invasive plants, Health: a walk along a trail, Information: we downloaded plant ID apps, and Civic & Social: it happened to occur after a major rain storm so we took the time to remove fallen branches a debris off the path.
