Orange Branch Library

Orange Imagination Garden, Orange Programming Room

Drop in between 2:00 and 4:00 pm to get up close and personal with chickens, ducks, rabbits, a turkey, sheep, goats, and a pig! It's a whole farm at the library! Great for all ages.

Watch ducks bathe, see a turkey strut, hear a rooster crow, and touch animals whose coats could become your sweater! This is the full farm experience!

Attendees will have an immersive learning experience with personal interactions with the animals while allowing the animals to exhibit their natural behaviors. These safe, experiential learning occasions allow visitors to interact with the animal at their own pace and comfort level.
