The Bookshelf
We still have plenty of time for gardening this summer. The Bookshelf has a very nice selection of gardening books. And for any last minute summer reading, be sure to look through our large collection of very gently used fiction books.

Take a look at the “last chance” cart where our inventory of half-priced books is refreshed weekly. You can put your payment for these books in the donations box if the Bookshelf is closed.
Bookshelf hours are from 10:30-5:00 on weekdays and from noon-2:00 on Saturdays.
