Sugar maples and red maples and Japanese maples, oh my! Maples make up a large amount of our forests in New Jersey. Garden Sprouts will go for a walk to see the different maple trees in our collection, and watch a demonstration of maple tree tapping.

The Homeschool Hikers program for older homeschoolers features a hike on the rugged trails of Pyramid Mountain with a nature lesson along the way! It’s a chance for older kids to cover some ground on hikes of approximately 3 miles while learning something new. In this session, we hunt for the subtle clues that spring is on its way, even if it still looks like winter out there!
The Toddler Trekkers will learn about the legend of the Groundhog and enjoy fun stories. Trekkers will go on a short walk to decide if spring has started.
Homeschool Hikers: Tuesday, March 12, 2024 – 10:30am -11:30am
Toddler Treks: Thursday, March 14, 2024

2/9 Update: The Denville Library building will continue to be closed. Our original contractor encountered unexpected circumstances with regard to the subflooring and we agreed for our mutual convenience to terminate the agreement and that the Library would move forward with a different contractor. There’s also an issue of dust from the old flooring, which while not harmful, will need to be cleared as part of the overall project.
But we are **OPEN AT THE DENVILLE MUSEUM** (the white building across the parking lot from the library) with these services:
– Holds pickup when notified
– Limited browsing and checkout of a small collection
– Checkout of most items currently housed at the library as long as they are available and accessible. Just give us time to grab your items!
– Museum passes for Denville residents
– Reference assistance
– Events at Denville Town Hall (1 St. Mary’s Place)
– Craft kits for kids
– New library cards for Denville residents
– Return of library items
Please come visit us during our regular business hours! And thank you for your continued patience.

Remember how hard it was to find eggs or even afford eggs during COVID shutdown?
Now if you come across a great deal on eggs from a trusted source, you can stock up.
Raw, fresh eggs can be frozen for up to a year. But not in the eggshell. Use a standard ice tray. Each slot holds one full egg. Simply, add the raw egg to each slot. Sprinkle the tops of each container of egg with a pinch of salt. Cover with plastic wrap and put in the freezer on a flat surface.
Once frozen, transfer the frozen egg cubes to an air tight container or freezer bag and label them.
They defrost easily by taking out the amount of eggs needed by cube and putting them in a covered bowl in the refrigerator.

How did people travel before they had cars? You’ll find out in the transportation exhibit! Sit on an old-fashioned tractor and pretend to drive the cars from over one hundred years ago.
Just because many birds have left for the winter doesn’t mean there aren’t still lots of birds to see! Start indoors to view the activity at our feeders before we head out on the trails to see which intrepid birds have decided to stick it out in NJ. Bring binoculars or borrow ours.
Ages 8 – 12.
Kids can join our staff to explore the wonders of the Frelinghuysen Arboretum. Travel the trails, look in the streams, and find what’s exciting and alive in the wilderness areas of the Arboretum. Wear waterproof shoes and dress for the outdoors.
