The 2024 Seed Library #WordlessWednesday

It's time to think of planting seeds.  Fortunately, there are seed options in this area for those of limited income.  One of them is our local library, called (yes) Your Home Library.

The Your Home Library seed catalog is located in an old card catalog.  The seeds?  About 60 varieties total were donated by a combination of Seed Savers Exchange and also the Hudson Valley Seed Co. Thanks go to both of these companies.

How it works:  "Please take only what you will use". I'm a little surprised they didn't limit the number of seed packets one patron could take, as they've done in previous years.

Brassicas.

 

Lettuce

The packets are small, and I thank the librarians for their efforts packaging and arranging these packets.
