Have You Seen Our
Community Garden?
As part of the Better Together 2016 Summer Reading Challenge, IPPL is partnering with Good Worx to install pop-up community gardens on the library grounds, and the first one has been installed near our entrance to showcase the project. More containers will be installed soon, including a teaching container near the Reading Garden and four more containers in the "river bed" on the east side of the library. All of the food grown will be shared with local at-risk families. Learn more about Good Worx and the partnership with IPPL. |
