THE PHENIX CITY RUSSELL COUNTY FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY HAVE A LITTLE FREE LIBRARY!! 🎉

We are happy to announce that our Lending Library has officially found its home at The Farm Stand at Ihagee Creek Livestock in Fort Mitchell! Honestly, we couldn't have picked a sweeter spot! 🌻🤎🐄🥹

Now you can stop by the farmstand for some local farm goodness, take in all the country charm, AND pick up a good read while you're there!

📖 Take a book
📚 Leave a book
✨Discover something new

A huge shoutout to our Friends of the Library, whose idea, hard work, and behind-the-scenes magic brought this project to life. From having the library built to finding the perfect home for it, they made it all happen! ❤️
