StoryWalk® at Porter Memorial Library


StoryWalk® at Porter Memorial Library will feature a new beloved children’s book each month. At the end of their StoryWalk® at Porter Memorial Libary, visitors will find a healthy recipe inspired by the featured book that they can make at home. 

StoryWalk® is a literacy-boosting project that places an illustrated children’s book, taken apart and displayed page by page, along an easily accessible community walking route. The StoryWalk® at Porter Memorial Library features a different book each month, carefully selected to be woven with themes tied to the season.

The project was initiated by Healthy Acadia Maine SNAP-Ed Nutrition Educator, Shannon Cherry, in partnership with Porter Memorial Library. In addition to offering healthy cooking and nutrition classes in schools and community settings, Maine SNAP-Ed Nutrition Educators also support local food projects throughout the year. These PSE (Policy, Systems, and Environmental) Change Projects help to increase community access to healthy, fresh food. 

To learn how to support the StoryWalk® at Porter Memorial Library, please contact Shannon Cherry at shannon.cherry@healthyacadia.org or (207) 255-3741.
