Next up for our summer reading events: the Hobby Farm visit for all-ages! Just us tomorrow 1:00 pm on Thursday, June 24! We’ll have goats, chickens, rabbits, a mini-horse, and more visiting from a local farm! Library patron Erica will be bringing in some of her farm's animals, and her friend Annette will be bringing her rabbits.
Everyone is invited to this program; no need to register for this one! We'll be meeting outside on the library lawn, so all the visiting animals will have room to move. We hope to see everyone there!
Check out some of the pictures from the last visit in 2018!
