What is a seed library?
|
- Like a collection of books, Seed Libraries help to spread seed and food literacy.
- Packets of seeds are made available to anyone who would like to plant them.
- Seed Libraries encourage the return (or donation) of seeds so that the seed collection can continue to grow.
|
How can I borrow seeds?
|
- Search for seeds using our catalogue.
- Visit our Seed Library located in our Georgetown or Acton branches.
- Take your chosen seeds to one of our staff members. They will check them out for you with your Halton Hills Public Library card.
- There are no fines and the seeds will expire off your library card record at the end of the season.
|
How can I give back?
|
- Share your produce with friends and family.
- Harvest seeds from the plants you have grown from the Seed Library.
- Save seeds and donate them back to the Seed Library at any time of year. We accept all types of seeds.
- Drop off seeds in their original envelope to a Halton Hills Public Library in either Georgetown or Acton.
