Green your thumb at the library | Library Limelight

It’s officially spring, the season known for brighter and longer days, warming temperatures, and budding flora and fauna and here in Colorado, we know our spring showers can still bring more snowflakes. At our house, spring means conversations about planting and gardening as the chance for freezing temperatures and snowstorms start to dwindle. Which vegetables do we want to grow this year? How can we bring more birds and bees to our yard? What will bloom first? If you have or want a green thumb, look no further than Pikes Peak Library District. The Library offers a large selection of digital and physical books, in addition to programs and classes, for both newcomers and experienced gardeners seeking to develop their skills and know-how. But, did you know that PPLD is home to several gardens and seed libraries that you can visit?
