Blueberries & Books Fundraiser!
ORDER ONLINE, by mail or at the library through Sunday, June 23rd!
The Blueberries & Books Fundraiser is back!
April 1 through June 23, the Fredricksen Library will be pre-selling 10 lb. boxes of fresh blueberries from New Jersey. It will be a fun and delicious way to kick off summer, AND it will help the Library raise additional funds! Once again, we'll have gift cards available for Mother's Day, Father's Day and general gift-giving. We’ll also highlight some of our favorite blueberry and baking books and pull together some of our favorite blueberry recipes for you to enjoy. You can pre-order your blueberries at the reference desk, or order ONLINE from our website and pay securely through PayPal. Cost will be $30 per 10 lb. box. If you are ordering, please be aware that blueberries will be available for ONE DAY PICKUP ONLY due of lack of overnight storage space. This year's pickup date will be June 27 - in time for your July 4th picnic recipes!
