On Saturday, May 6, 2023, 10:00 AM to noon, the Franklin Public Library (FPL) will be hosting two events in the parking lot. The events are an Arbor Day Celebration and a Citywide Cleanup.

The Arbor Day Celebration is the City of Franklin and the Franklin Environmental Commission handing out free tree samplings while supplies last in a first come, first serve manner. Children present will be given drawings and wildflower seed packets if asked.

The Citywide Cleanup is a “Great American Cleanup Day” where participants and the Franklin Public Works Department (FPW) work together to clean up trash around Franklin. Trash bags will be available use, but participants are asked to bring gloves and pre-register by contacting the FPW by calling (414) 425-2592. If you can’t call, you can pre-register at the library on the day of the event. After this event, you will be given a token of appreciation.
