Felton Branch opening is proceeding in phases as COVID-19 restrictions are eased. Book drop is now open 24/7. Beginning May 11, our library was one of the first branches to offer active browsing of the collections with the modifications: masks required and capacity limits.
On May 8, the FLF Park Team mounted a pop-up Storybook Walk in the Discovery Park with the support of County Parks Friends (CPF). Featuring Alison Farrell’s children’s book The Hike, the Storybook Walk will be in the park for families to enjoy until June 5.

Felton Discovery Park's Plant of the Month is the Flowering Currant - Ribes sanguineum. We look forward to these blooms in the park as the newly established shrubs mature. Its cascading chandeliers of bright pink flowers make this a very popular native plant for the garden.
