Happy Hibernation Storytime
Many animals hibernate every year when the weather gets colder. Let's find out what that means, and which animals do that. Enjoy an interactive, multi-age, indoors storytime with an emphasis on early literacy that will include an art activity that can be completed at the library or at home.
Registration is limited to 10, for kids ages 2 to 5 with a caregiver. Please register once per family and attendees must follow all COVID-related guidelines.
Family Yoga
Caregivers with children ages 3 to 7 are invited to register for one, two, or all three Saturday morning sessions with yoga instructor Tommie Burch. Sessions begin at 10:15 a.m., Nov. 6, and will run for the following two consecutive Saturdays. This is a fun and joyful class that provides an opportunity for bonding with family while sharing the health and well being that yoga brings.
Please bring a yoga mat or large towel. Please register as a family for each class. All attendees must follow all current covid guidelines. Detailed guidelines will be available as the date approaches.
Herbs and Holism
Plants, like people, are complex. The most effective herbalists understand the how and why behind the herb's therapeutic properties.
Holistic herbalism is about getting to know the essential healing pattern within each plant. Join us at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 27, to learn about one medicinal plant — from its herbal actions, energetics planetary correspondences, and more. Go beyond basic herbalism and gather a truly holistic understanding of the plants you rely on for medicine. Please register.
