The YPL Seed Library has been a success again this year! Seeds have been picked up and planted and are now in full bloom in gardens all around Yonkers.
Summer is a great time to explore the outdoors. Whether you go for a walk in your neighborhood, in a park or in the woods, you can find lots of interesting plants and animals. If you’re looking to enhance your outdoor experience, we have created an “I LOVE NATURE BINGO” bingo card.
Click below to download and print your own card or pick one up at any of our three library locations.
Once you complete your bingo card, come to any of the Yonkers Public Library locations to pick up your prize: a sustainable DIY Soap made with shea butter, glycerin, oat protein, grapefruit essential oil and calendula petals.
Activities on the Seed Library Bingo card range from bird watching to naming tree species to visiting a local farmers’ market. You can check out the following resources to help you fill out your bingo card:
