Summer Reading: Cambridge City Growers Seed & Seedling Swap (Main)
PLEASE NOTE LOCATION CHANGE from Joan Lorentz Park to CPL Rindge Room.
Swap extra seeds, plants or harvested items from your garden at the Library! Learn informally about Cambridge's pollinator biodiversity and why it's so important to grow and share food, strengthen and grow our local food economy, and most of all...to get our hands dirty while we get to know our neighbors, our community and our place in the world around us.
Kids can make a pollinator finger puppet or take home a kit to make one.

Fabric Mending: Darning (Main)
Darning is a fabric mending technique that involves reinforcing or re-weaving a portion of fabric by hand. In this workshop, we’ll learn how to visibly mend holes and weak areas in sweaters, socks, and other knit fabrics using seed stitch and square darning techniques. You’ll leave with a sampler of both techniques that you can refer back to when tackling your own darning projects at home. Suitable for beginners with little or no darning experience, though it does help if you have some experience with hand sewing.
