Seed library

A seed library works like a normal library – except that you borrow seeds instead of books. 

In keeping with our motto , “Lend it, plant it, share it,” here you have the opportunity to borrow seeds, grow them, and pass them on. Take seeds home, grow plants from them, and bring back some of the seeds you harvest.

In this way, you actively contribute to preserving genetic diversity, promoting sustainable farming practices, and fostering responsible seed management – whether you’re just starting out in gardening or already have extensive knowledge. We hope you enjoy browsing, selecting, and growing.
