What's happening at the Moorcroft Branch Library

Stop by the library to see the new garden boxes out front! These came from the community garden as it is being removed to make room for the new Food Pantry.

The amazing volunteers who have worked to keep the garden going over the years provided their time and effort to move the boxes along with plants, decor and supplies to the library. Firesteel provided staff and equipment to move the dirt. 

The garden boxes already add beauty to our front entrance. Miss Lacey plans a future project with our youth patrons to paint a rock snake to add to the area. We are excited to see the flowers and vegetables bloom. 

We had three families attend our Mother’s Day Mystery Craft on May 3. All the ladies who received gifts were very impressed with the items made by their children. We will be offering a Father’s Day Mystery Craft on Friday June 7. Reservations are required for this class.

Congratulations to the Class of 2024 on your graduation! As the school year comes to an end, we would like to remind students to KEEP READING!
