Borrow (Seeds from the seed library); Grow (Plant and care for the seeds in your garden); Return (Harvest seeds from your mature plants. Return seeds to share) *Please limit 3 packets per family at one time.Seed Swap Info. Saving seeds is an important skill in preserving vegetables, flowers and herbs and to make gardens more sustainable. We are starting small and hope this project grows into a community staple for supplying seeds. Vegetables are in the large bin, flowers and herbs are in the smaller bin. We do not guarantee germination, but try to supply seeds that are less than 2 years old. Please look up on the internet or in books planting instructions, and what mature plants look like. Not all seeds are appropriate to plant at certain times of the year! Please only take what you need! Please limit 3 packets per family at one time. If you are swapping seeds, take as many packets as you contribute. Fill out the information on the empty seed packet to the best of your knowledge, and place the packet in the appropriate bin. You many also recycle your seed packet by removing the white label and relabeling with your information. Now let’s get growing!! Thank you!!
