Little Lending Library Now Open at Double Oak Barn

ACLT’s New Little Lending Library Now Open at Double Oak Barn

We are pleased to announce that ACLT’s long-time supporter and super talented-carpenter, Tay Vaughan, has built us a new Little Lending Library for the barns at both trailheads. The south side library will be installed soon, but the first one is now installed and fully stocked on the barn porch at Double Oak Farm. The books are primarily intended for children. Please feel free to take a couple and bring back a couple of yours to share. We are looking for books having anything to do with nature, the earth, climate, etc. If the library is full, please do not leave your books – just bring them back at another time. 

The renovations/updates being done on the D.O. porch are part of a group project by graduates of this year’s Master Naturalist class. We think you will enjoy the work they have done! They have added and organized the artifacts found along the trails, added informative posters, and plenty of new chairs to welcome you! There’s more to come, include an exhibit on climate change, so visit often!
