The Mt. Morris Public Library is located at 105 S. McKendrie Avenue.

Herb Gardening Class

Wednesday, March 25, at 6 p.m.: Join Master Gardeners Phil and Marcia as they delve into the world of herb gardening. Learn about herbs that you can grow all year long inside and which ones you can plant outside soon. There will be information about which herbs do well indoors that you can have all winter long, how to use them in a variety of recipes, and which herbs can be planted outside for summer growing. Sign up at the link in the events page on the library’s website.

Lego Night!

Thursday, March 19, at 6 p.m.: Bring the family out for some awesome brick building. We will pull out #AlltheLegos for this night and kids can build whatever they can imagine. Then they can put a name on their creation and keep it in the library’s display for all to enjoy until the next Lego night.
