Spring Story Walk along the Resilience Garden at Barrington Government Center

Enjoy a sunny stroll near the Resilience Garden* at Barrington Government Center and read the witty, zany, hilarious story: The Duck Never Blinks, written and illustrated by Alex Latimer. Come and see for yourself if a duck blinks. Or not! The Story Walk along the Resilience Garden at Barrington Government Center is funded by a grant from the Office of Library and Information Services (OLIS). It is located at the top of the Gazebo Hill on the County Road side. *The Barrington Government Center Resilience Garden is an educational garden located along the walkways found between the library building and County Road. The garden is designed to be resilient to the effects of climate change that include at various times hotter, drier, and wetter conditions. It contains a variety of hardy, native, and locally sourced plants that require less watering, weeding, pesticides, and fertilizers than more traditional gardens. The garden functions as a community resource to help and encourage residents to create simple and affordable resilience gardens of their own.
