The Weekender: April 21 - 23

Happy weekend! The trees are budding, flowers are blooming, and there’s another 70° day in the forecast! Here’s what caught our eye for the weekend agenda…

 
 
 

Earth Day: Lots happening around town for Earth Day this Saturday! The City of Glens Falls, Crandall Library, and Sustainable PR are hosting an Earth Day Celebration in City Park on Saturday from 10am-2pm including sustainability-related activities and notable climate-speakers. Crandall Library will be hosting an electronics recycling event (here are the details on that), as well as celebrating the grand opening of their Seed Library (more on that below)!

Crandall Library Seed Library: Love this idea! This Saturday is the grand opening of the Seed Library, which will be a community-based initiative of saving and sharing seeds.

Moving forward, the Seed Library will be open Saturdays from 10am-12pm, Tuesdays from 6-8pm, and Thursdays from 5-7pm. Find out more here!
