Adults are invited to learn ways we can use our city lots that don't involve turf and lawnmowers. Such misuse has resulted in native bees and butterflies losing their precious habitat to urban development while pesticide use negatively affects their populations.
This program will be presented by Stacy Featherstone of Indianapolis Food Not Lawns.
The second county branch in the library system opened in 1967 as the Westlane Branch in the Westlane Shopping Center on North Michigan Road. In 1974, the library purchased 2.76 acres on Zionsville Road from MSD Pike Township for construction of the current 13,000-square-foot Pike Branch that opened in 1986. Its design was cited by the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects. The branch was remodeled and expanded to 20,000 square feet in 1999.
