In the spring of 2015, one of the Master Gardeners was approached by some of the library personnel about redoing the landscape of \u00a0the library patio. The request was voted on by the Board and the work was done. Several members helped with the work. Also one member donated flowers she had started from seed, and another bought and donated a wall water fountain for the patio. Recently I went by and checked on the outdoor reading room (that\u2019s what they call it). I\u2019m happy to say all was alive and well! The fountain was working with water flowing through it. There were 2 hanging baskets of blooming red geraniums and pots of red begonias on the tables. I found out there is a volunteer from Maplesville who donates her time one day a week. She has added a raised bed for vegetables and pots of tomatoes and cucumbers. My hat\u2019s off to all the ones who have made good use of the outdoor reading room. It looks great! Below are NOW (top\u00a0 photos) and THEN photos.<\/p>\n
