This is a Salisbury READS North Woods event! What's the connection? Apples play a central role in North Woods, beginning with a rare apple planted under extraordinary circumstances and a legendary orchard that flourishes, bringing uniquely delicous fruit to the Berkshires. Read North Woods Chapters 1-3 for a truly spectacular portrayal of early New England rebels, renegades, and early agriculture, with a fascinating (and spine-tingling) tale of apple growing in our region.
Celebrate this year's bounteous apple crop and our own local growers by making something delicious!
Registration is encouraged but not required.
If you can't drop off during drop-off hours, write to scovilleadultprograms@biblio.org to arrange an alternative drop-off time.
