Get ready for spring and join us for a free seed exchange at the Library. You’ll pick up some free seeds, learn about plants and gardening, pollinators, composting and more!
Have seeds to share? Bring them with you, packaged and labelled with date and variety, to exchange with other seed savers. Please be mindful to avoid invasive species.
Having seeds to swap is NOT required to attend this event; we will have a well-stocked seed library for everyone to take what they need for their gardens.
