In the spirit of Earth Day, Milford Garden Club member, Terry Pitt, Certified Master Gardener and Fairyologist will present “Spirits in Our Gardens: Mother Earth, Fairies and Us” in the Milford Library Community Room on Monday, April 24, 2017 from 6:30 to 7:30 P.M. There is an awakening among us that beings live in our gardens, recognized in every country in the world: fairies, elves, divas, leprechauns, gnomes, etc. Few of us see them, many of us feel their

energy and all of us can learn to live cooperatively with them. In a lighthearted way, Pitt presents what her studies and her experiences have led her to believe about the energetic personalities of the various beings, collectively called elementals, and what it takes on our parts to have them grace our gardens and help us with our household chores.

Ms. Pitt has what she calls “a checkered career” including raising a large family, teaching, managing corporate communications and writing. On retiring from AT&T, she earned a UCONN Master Gardener Certificate, created home gardens with native plants. and joined the

Milford Garden Club where she became interested in care for the environment. That led her to take an online course on fairies, whose job it is to take care of our environment. Becoming a Fairyologist fit well with her interest in all things spiritual, leading to this program “Spirits in

Our Gardens,” called “mind expanding” by those who enjoyed it last October at the Marsh Botanical Gardens at Yale.

This program is co-sponsored by the Friends of Milford Library, the Milford Garden Club, and the Benson-Crump Community Gardens Program.

Try your hand at some letter writing as an American Immigrant! This month, we’re joined by Milford Poet Laureate Mick Theebs to do some fun researching on what it was like for immigrants arriving at Ellis Island. Then we’ll write letters or post cards from the point of view of those immigrants arriving in America. Letters/Post Cards may be selected for display in the library!

 This month we're reading Pale Horse, Pale Rider by Katherine Anne Porter.   All are welcome to join this lively group!

Copies of the book are available in advance at the Library Reference Desk.
