Neighborhoods to Nurdles: How We are Connected to Ocean Ecosystems
Many of our friends and neighbors love beach clean ups, but did you know that climate change plays a role in how much trash you might find? In this event you will learn about how climate-accelerated weather patterns, industrial emissions and pollution, and nature-based climate solutions interact to shape beach ecosystems in our local area.

Getting Ready to Grow — Free Seeds at OPL
Seeds are available to all interested gardeners during regular library hours. The library is simple to use; sign up for a membership, choose your seeds, take them home and plant! At the end of your growing season, if you harvest seeds, bring some back to the library to share for next year's planting season. The Orange Seed Lending Library has four locations — on the 2nd floor of the Orange Public Library & History Center, at the El Modena and Taft Branch Libraries, and Orange Home Grown Farmer's Market on the third Saturday of the month.
