The Seed Library

A Seed Library is a community resource that offers a wide variety of saved seeds for people to borrow, share, and plant. Unlike traditional libraries that lend books, Seed Libraries provide seeds of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, supporting local planting and biodiversity. Participants can take seeds to grow their own crops, save some seeds from their harvest, and return extra seeds to the library for others. This promotes sustainable gardening, preserves heirloom varieties, and strengthens community connections through shared knowledge and resources. Seed Libraries are often located at community centers, farms, or botanical gardens.
