In 2024, the library received a grant from the Mount Horeb Rotary Club to transform the patio outside the Children's Area into a Sensory Garden and additional programming space. Extra special thanks to the Rotarians who volunteered their time and muscle to help assemble the wheelchair-accessible raised beds and garden fence. The space is open to library users of all ages during library open hours.
