Baby Time is tailored for babies from birth-12 months together with their favorite adult!

Enjoy 15-20 minutes of early literacy activities followed by a playgroup. We sing songs, bounce to action rhymes, and share stories, providing a rich environment for babies to hear language and interact with others.

Join us for an hour of dedicated reading. Socialize after, or not!

How it works: B.Y.O.B. (Bring Your Own Book) or grab something new off the shelf and read alongside other readers! There are no assigned readings. All book genres and formats are welcome.

Let's get together and cook a potluck of recipes from our chosen cookbook!

This month we'll be cooking from My New Roots: Inspired Plant-Based Recipes for Every Season: A Cookbook by Sarah Britton.

Here's how it works:

1. Register for the club.

2. Check out a copy of the cookbook from the reference desk.

3. Choose a recipe.

4. Let us know what recipe you'll be making when you return the cookbook to the reference desk.

5. Cook the recipe for a group potluck at the library!

Plus, we'll be raffling off copies of the cookbook at the meeting!
