• What is a seed library?
  A seed library serves to distribute seeds for free in the community. Thanks to donations and funding from The Peters Township Public Library Foundation, we can offer this opportunity to the PT community. Seed libraries help reduce seed waste by repacking seeds into smaller quantities and providing information about successfully growing your seeds.
• What seeds are available?
  Various fruit, vegetable, herb, and pollinator flowers are available. You can scan through the binder of seed packets and search our online seed list to see what is currently available.
• How do I 'check out' seeds?
  We ask that you take a maximum of 10 seed packets a day with a maximum of 5 of a single type. You can find seeds in the binder then locate them in the corresponding seed bin. Once you have your seeds, THAT'S IT! No card necessary
• What if I don’t see the seeds that I want?
  If you have a recommendation or other feedback, please leave a note!
• I checked out seeds, but what do I do next?
  Seed packets provide basic planting information, but different plants and varieties require different care. We encourage you to use our online seed list for more information from the seed provider.
• How can I donate seeds?
  You can donate seeds by completing a seed donation form and dropping your seeds at the seed library. Unopened seeds in their original package do not need a form completed. We do not circulate seeds more than 4 years old. Please note that the state has certain criteria that must be met to redistribute seeds. Seeds that cannot be added directly to the seed library are left for others to peruse.
• What other gardening resources does the library have?
  In addition to books and magazines about gardening and plants, there are also some Great Courses that can help you learn more. We have programs throughout the year to support you as well.

The Seed Library is generously funded by The Peters Township Library Foundation.
