Longwood Gardens Community Read


This winter and spring we join local libraries and community partners for the Longwood Gardens Community Read! This year, we'll reflect on the inspiration, meaning, beauty, and solace we can find in gardens. Longwood Gardens has chosen two titles with this theme:

The Secret Garden adapted by Calista Brill, based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Last Garden in England by Julia Kelly

Participating Delaware County libraries will hold programs in the coming months based on the Community Read books. Find both books at your local library by clicking on the highlighted titles above. Find more information about the Community Read here. A full list of programs in Delaware County libraries is located in our event calendar.
