Our Services

The Palace Project
Saturday, May 18, 10-1PM. The plant sale will feature plants from Freund's Farm Market as well as donated plants. Donated plants are most welcome, in pots, if possible. Please leave behind the library during the week before.
Friday, May 3, at 7PM. The history of Litchfield County highlights the challenges that Northern communities faced during the Civil War. Author Peter C. Vermilyea uses first-hand accounts; many never published before, to investigate these events and show how the process of preparing for war created a lasting bond between a community and its soldiers. This event is free. Books will be available for purchase.
Children's Story Hour: Every Friday morning year-round at 10:30am with Cindy! . Stories, songs, crafts and a snack!
