Come visit us at the Barnette School Bazaar!

Would you like a living memory of the original Ficus benjiminus trees from the Noel Wien Library’s lobby?

Now is your chance! We will be selling them at the Barnette School Bazaar along with other Fairbanks Library Foundation items.

You can purchase your ficus start online ahead of time and pick it up at the Barnette School Bazaar.  To pick up the ficus start, print out the receipt and show it to our volunteer at the Fairbanks Library Foundation table.

If you are unable to pick your ficus start at the Barnette School Bazaar, then please email ficus@thelibraryfoundation.org and arrange a date and time with a library foundation volunteer to pick up your ficus at the Noel Wien Library reference desk.

Ficus trees don’t like the cold, so while we will enshroud the ficus start in a heavy paper bag, if you have a small cooler that would protect it even more during these winter months, you might want to bring that with you.

Proceeds from this fundraiser will benefit the Fairbanks Library Foundation and therefore your public libraries.
