Last week, we talked a bit about Meaford’s community gardens. Meaford’s also lucky to have a seed library housed, appropriately, in the history room of the Meaford Public Library.
What’s a seed library? Just like a book library, you may “borrow” seeds to use in your garden. And when it’s time to harvest, you donate seeds from your bounty back to the library. (You can also donate commercial seed packets.)
The initial collection came from more than 700 vegetable and flower seed packets donated by Metro Grocery to Golden Town Outreach, and it will continue to grow as each season produces more new growth and seeds.
Just drop into the library to find out more.
