We’ll follow our hollering with a drop-in seed-starting workshop, where you can help us get ready for planting our library garden. Bring a small plant cell pack or a cardboard egg-carton if you’d like to start a few seeds to take home! All ages welcome; children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult.
In addition, we'll be launching our new seed library, which is also made possible in part by the support of Seed Savers Exchange. With this new addition to the library, you will be able to “check out” seeds to take home and plant. Several varieties will be available, and experienced gardeners will be on hand to give "seedy" advice to new gardeners. If you are an experienced gardener (or simply up for the adventure), there will be the option to save seeds from what you grow this season, and bring some back to the library to renew the available stock and keep the cycle going. More information will be available when you stop by on or after February 20 at noon. Come grow with us!
(Have extra pots lying around? We’re seeking donations of clean plant pots, preferably 3-4” diameter, for transplanting our seedlings when they get bigger. Unused potting soil is also welcome!)
