Kids and teenagers can get a free snack weekdays at the Newton Public Library thanks to a collaborative effort between the Newton School District and the library. Julie Miller is the Food Service Supervisor for Newton Schools, and says the grab and go snacks are available on a first come, first serve basis starting at 1 p.m. each weekday, which coincides with the library’s reading time. 

“Kids can come in and explore the library, participate in the programming, and get a healthy snack while they are there.”

The free shelf stable snacks for kids through the age of 18 will be available at the Newton Public Library every weekday, rain or shine. The library is located at 100 North 3rd Avenue West.
