Join us at the Brooklyn Branch to learn about how to get started foraging with Rachel Mifsud from Will Forage for Food. Rachel will cover foraging basics such as why forage, what things do you need to think about, and where do you start learning.
Time for questions and answers will also be available.
Visit your local JDL branch and celebrate Earth Day by kicking off the gardening season with us! Plant a tomato seed to take home and enter a raffle to win a prize donated by our local businesses!
Activities will be available during open hours at branches that are open on April 22. Supplies for planting seeds are limited, but entering the raffle drawing will last all day.
Thank you to the amazing local businesses that donated raffle prizes:

Join JDL with helping our environment by planting tree seedlings! With summer just around the corner, late spring is the perfect time to plant tree seedlings.
Stop by any JDL branch to pick up a free tree seedling (6-18 inches in size) along with planting instructions! No reservation is needed, however seedlings are available while supplies last.
Tree types: Yellow Birch, Bush Honeysuckle, Common Nine Bark, Northern White Cedar. Please note, selection is subject to availability and patrons may not request a specific tree.
Once you’ve planted your tree, take a picture and tag Jackson District Library (@JacksonDistrictLibrary) on Facebook and Instagram, so we all can see the impact we’ve all made together!
