Yes, you saw the headline correctly. I stopped by the library this week and noticed a display offering a seed exchange. What a great idea! I did a little digging and found more information at this link about how the library is marking Earth Day throughout April. Check it out. I know many of us are starting to think about gardens and outdoor activities….. AND Happy Library Month to all the wonderful staff and librarians out there.
