Read & Pick Program: Strawberries - Tuesday, June 3 - 2 sessions - 9:30 am & 11 am

Read & Pick is an innovative program that combines picking fruit with your young child and listening to a story highlighting the fruit. Parents and young children (ages preschool to 8 years) are welcome to celebrate everything wonderful about strawberries. We will be reading two books highlighting strawberries. Then everyone will pick his or her own pint of strawberries. The cost is $7.00 per child and includes the pint of strawberries. Our staff will explain how strawberries grow and how they should be picked. Pre-registration is requested.
