Green Initiative
Pequot Library is dedicated to preserving the environment and has
collaborated with the Fairfield Organic Teaching Farm, Aspetuck Land Trust,
and others to encourage community interest in going green. To this end, the
movies Fresh and Dirt were shown at the Library. Several children’s programs,
‘Jamming and Canning for Everyone’ and ‘Putting Your Garden to Bed’ were
offered as part of our Green Initiative Program. Last year's One Book, One Town
choice, Eating Animals, provided ample 'Green Initiative' programs including a
Farmer's Market at the Library and a screening of the movie Food, Inc.
