Lyman Orchards Apple Barrel Farm Market

<h4>Seasonal Snuggles to Welcome Spring at the Orchard!</h4>
Saturday, April 18th 10 AM - 1 PM
Families can enjoy a special round of 15‑minute Goat Snuggle sessions at Lyman Orchards throughout the spring season. Our friendly goats will be on‑site, offering quick, cozy visits that fit easily into a day at the orchard. As the weather warms from March into May, these shorter sessions are perfect for younger guests or anyone looking for a sweet, low‑commitment cuddle experience away from the farm. Each date brings its own touch of springtime charm, making it a simple and heartwarming addition to your orchard outing.
Minors cannot make reservations to handle a goat alone, but can be added as an additional helper to assist an adult handler on the goat walk. There must be at least 1 adult person who will be the handler for each goat.
$10 per person

Join us for a special screening of the 2025 documentary The Librarians in honor of National School Library Month! In this acclaimed feature, librarians emerge as first responders in the fight for democracy and our First Amendment Rights. As they well know, controlling the flow of ideas means control over communities. In Texas, the Krause List targets 850 books focused on race and LGBTQia+ stories – triggering sweeping book bans across the U.S. at an unprecedented rate. As tensions escalate, librarians connect the dots from heated school and library board meetings nationwide to lay bare the underpinnings of extremism fueling the censorship efforts. Despite facing harassment, threats, and laws aimed at criminalizing their work – the librarians’ rallying cry for freedom to read is a chilling cautionary tale. (Unrated, 92 minutes)
The screening will include a special introductory video by Amanda Jones, author of the bestselling 2024 memoir That Librarian and one of the librarians featured in the documentary. This event is a collaboration between the Wallingford Public Library and the CT Association of School Librarians (CASL). It will be immediately followed by a short Q&amp;A with CASL's President, Valerie DiLorenzo, and Immediate Past President, Jenny Lussier. <a href="https://www.wallingfordlibrary.org/event/librarians-documentary-screening-discussion-74587" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Registration is required; please sign up using this link</a>!&nbsp;
