Fall into Flowers is a seasonal library event focused on planting native seeds for the winter and creating botanical crafts. If you plan to attend, keep in mind that the library requests registration before the event. Adults will get to make pressed-flower stickers using real dried botanicals, and there will be a dedicated autumn activity designed for children. You will also learn about which native flowers to plant for overwintering using seeds from the library's own collection. This is a highly practical weekend stop because it combines a useful gardening lesson for your yard with a hands-on craft session that keeps both hands and minds busy.
