Celebrating the DeKalb County Library Transition Plan with “Garden Sips” at the Chamblee Library

n partnership with Roots Down and GreenHive, neighbors gathered for “Garden Sips” at the Chamblee Library to enjoy herbal mocktails, explore the gardens, and continue to celebrate a major milestone: the passing of the DeKalb County Library Transition Plan!

This initiative will transform all 23 DeKalb libraries into vibrant, climate resilient, landscapes that are both beautiful and beneficial to the community. At the Chamblee Library, visitors learned how plants like lavender, mint, and rosemary can be used to make refreshing drinks while also supporting pollinators and healthy soil.

Our goal is to transform every library into a hub for climate resilience, community engagement, and environmental education. Events like this show how libraries can connect people with nature and with each other.
