Early April Newsletter
for the Amenia Free Library
Spring is finally here...we think?!?
With our days getting longer, we are looking forward to being outdoors and enjoying the sunshine!
Thanks to several wonderful stores in the area, we have a variety of flowers and vegetable seeds for patrons to take home and plant! Check out the offerings while they last.
Special thanks to Herrington's, Paley's Farm Market, Roosters Route 82 & Tractor Supply.
