6:00-8:00 pm

Join us, and Pleasant Valley Climate Smart, to welcome Janice Novet, a Master Gardener with Cornell Cooperative Extension for a program about Spongy Moths - that seem to be everywhere!

She'll discuss how to assess the severity of an infestation and how best to manage the eggs, caterpillars, and adult moths through the year. Working on developing your own management plan based on your infestation is key to preventing the loss of our beautiful trees.

Learn what to do right now, best times to apply physical and chemical controls, and how to support nature's role in limiting Spongy Moths.

Senior Movie Morning

Wednesday, December 13th at 11:30 am

Seniors (ages 50+) are invited to attend this special seniors-only movie matinee. Light refreshments will be provided, but feel free to bring your own snack or lunch to enjoy!

For the month of December, we are screening the movie "Green Book". “This feel-good comedy-drama won Best Picture at the 2019 Oscars and is based on the true life 1962 tour of the deep south taken by Don Shirley - a black concert pianist. Shirley hires Frank Vallelonga (a bouncer at the Copacabana) to be his driver and body guard, and promises they'll be home in time for Christmas Eve. Best Actor Oscar Winner Mahershala Ali played Dr. Don Shirley and Viggo Mortenson played "Tony Lip" Vallelonga. The film was co-written and produced by Nick Vallelonga, the real-life son of "Tony Lip," and is named after The Negro Motorist Green Book, an annual guide book for African American travelers that was published until 1966.”
