It’s officially that time of year again! Burger night!! Join us next Thursday for dinner at the Cafe! As an added bonus, 2 dollars of every burger will be donated to a local cause! This year’s recipient is the McIntosh Memorial Library for the gardening program!
The McIntosh Memorial Library has operated a garden behind the Welcome Center on Rock Avenue for 8 years. The space contains 20 garden beds, a greenhouse, and serves as an outdoor learning space. In 2026,18 varieties of vegetables and herbs were grown plus edible flowers. 80% of the produce harvested was donated to the Living Faith Food Pantry. The remaining 20% was used by the library to support a variety of cooking and educational classes offered for patrons of all ages.

In the garden space, the library hosts many events including an adult gardening series, "Mocktails in the Mulch" to classes with youth enrolled in the daily After School Program. Annually, the library hosts a lighted Pumpkin Walk at the end of October for youth and families to enjoy. In spring 2026, McIntosh Memorial Library launched a garden tool library. This new collection contains over 60 garden tools patrons can check out to support their home and farm gardening efforts. The library also hosts an annual Seed Swap and Garden Expo in March featuring speakers, vendors, and workshops.
The McIntosh Memorial Library Garden is managed by a mix of library staff and volunteers ranging from Wisconsin Master Gardeners to members of the library's Youth Garden Club.
