Our Seed Library is a free resource available to all library members, providing access to a diverse collection of vegetable and herb seeds.

Our Seed Library is a collection of vegetable and herb seeds that you can “borrow” for planting at home. All of the seeds are organic and are purchased or donated through Seed Savers.
How Do I Borrow Seeds?
Just submit a request form and your seed packets will be available for pickup at the front desk. It's that simple! (1 request per household per season for up to 3 seed packets).
Do I Have to Return Seeds?
No, but we encourage you to share seeds from plants you have grown with your family, friends and neighbors. Also, we would love to see photos of your garden or hear stories about your success!
Notice: Thank you for your overwhelming support! All seed packets are out of stock for the 2024 season. We appreciate your participation and are already making plans to expand our offerings for the 2025 season.
