If you’ve been in the library over the summer, you may have noticed the second floor windowsills being transformed into a temporary plant nursery…

We’ve been growing herb seedlings for a free event during Welcome Week. Come along to the ground floor of the Fountains Library on Wednesday 24th September and Thursday 25th September, 10am-3pm and pot your own plant to take home and watch grow.

We’ll be providing plant care tips and free recipe cards for inspiration on how to use your new herbs in simple, tasty dishes. There’ll also be a collection of books on plant care available to borrow.

No prior experience of gardening or plant care is required – everyone is welcome!
