The Eagle Scout project will add elevated garden beds, making it easier for gardeners by reducing the need to bend over. The project also includes the installation of a fence around the perimeter of the garden. The fence will deter animals from getting into the garden. Projects like this are only possible with public support of the Foundation. https://yourcl.org/local/foundation/post/20210726/ Tue, 27 Jul 2021 10:52:35 -0400 https://yourcl.org/local/foundation/post/20210726/ At the July meeting, the Community Library Foundation approved funding for a performance of the Central Ohio Symphony at the Community Library later this year.
