It's not quiet (it's small, so you can hear everyone sitting together planning their gardens at the tables, so I thought the "no talking on cell phones" rule was odd), but it's fun, and in a wonderful location.

There's a free plant shelf (you can donate and/or receive). There are several arm chairs and a few tables with chairs, and a large courtyard with tables and chairs right outside. It would be a lovely shaded spot for a birthday party if they allow that. There's library and gardens bingo sheets for kids to complete for fun and a prize.
