Program Description

Event Description

In honor of Juneteenth, stop by the library’s Seed Library to pick up a packet of roselle hibiscus seeds—an easy-to-grow plant with deep cultural roots. With your seed packet, you’ll receive a handout to learn about the tradition of red drinks in Juneteenth celebrations and how this vibrant flower has been used to create tart, refreshing beverages for generations.

This passive program is available while supplies last—no registration needed.
