The New Castle Public Library is excited to welcome back Tom Lunt from the Fort Casmir Honey Company with our program "Gardening for the Bees," taking place Thursday, July 7 at 6:30pm. Join Tom as he explains the ins and outs of beekeeping and what you can to do to make your garden friendlier and more welcoming for bees, which are so essential to our environment.
