“Thinking Green” in March
Our latest lobby book display reflects the fact that
March is often a month when many of us begin to “think green.” All the books that we’re featuring in our display are "green" because they focus on gardens and
gardening (especially vegetable gardening, in conjunction with our “Planning
Your Vegetable Garden” program coming up on Thursday, March 10th at
7:00 p.m.). Can’t wait for spring? Thinking green and longing to get out in the
garden? Stop in and bring home a book from our display!
