Library Needs Landscaping Help

As some of you know by now, the library is in partnership with a non-profit, ecological design landscaping organization called "Plan C Initiative". The goal is to re-landscape all green areas around the library that are environmentally friendly, supporting people and wildlife. It will showcase different plant communities with a mixture of native and edible plants. This entire program will be done in several phases over the next year+ beginning on the north side by the outdoor sculpture and halfway along the west side (Riviere Rd.) up to the front entrance of the building.

The first phase will be done the weekend of Sat.-Sun. Dec. 5-6 and we're looking for volunteers to plant and mulch. The schedule for both days is 10 AM to 4 PM. We realize not everyone has the time (and in some cases the stamina) to help out those many hours so any amount of time, even 1-2 hours, would be greatly helpful.

If you can lend a hand, here are some items we suggest you bring with you:
-gardening gloves
-hat
-shovel
-hand trowel
-water
-closed toe shoes

And if you can help us to mulch on Sunday, a wheelbarrow would be quite welcomed.

To assist you, we are planning to have a volunteer training session on Tuesday Dec. 1 at 6 PM in the Harbor Room at the Library to answer all your gardening questions.

Thank you for considering to offer your time and muscle. This is your library and now it could also be your garden.

Please contact me if you have any questions or better yet, if you want to volunteer.
