LUSH Valley’s Little Seed Libraries provide convenient, barrier-free access to food-growing resources and seeds for community growers and the garden-curious.
LUSH’s Little Seed Libraries provide access to a variety of seeds including heirloom, open-pollinated, and locally-adapted varieties. Folks are encouraged to borrow seeds for free, then return some of theirs at the end of the growing season to replenish inventory and support future growers.
The first of our Little Seed Libraries is located at the Tsolum Educational Garden on Headquarters Road across from G.P. Vanier Secondary School. We’ve recently stocked a second Library at our warehouse in Tin Town at 2342 Rosewall Crescent.
These community lending libraries aim to promote seed saving, increase agricultural biodiversity and encourage community growing and resilience. We encourage you to pay one a visit or join the conversation in our Grow Food Everywhere group on Facebook.
LUSH Valley would like to thank our partners and community members who have generously donated materials, seeds and time to this project.
