April 2016 // Our first community seed lending library opened at the Appleton Public Library. Our model is that you will be able to borrow seeds to grow food, learn to save seeds, and thus strengthen our local seed diversity. The idea is that people save and trade seeds with each other and the library provides the opportunity and education to make it happen. Collectively, we believe that the saving and sharing of seeds has become a lost art as the landscape changed from the intimate to the industrial. Historically, seeds were treated as sacred, a living trust passed down to us by our ancestors. Our aim is to revive the diversity of local seed, share skills and motivate new conversations of chance. By growing a plant from seed, eating its fruit and returning it back to seed, we become fully engaged in the rhythm of nature, grow more attuned to the world around us, and gain a deeper understanding of our own place in the web of life.

Doing some spring cleaning? We invite you to donate your new and gently used books, CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray, and jigsaw puzzles for our next book sale that benefits library programs and services. 📚📦 You can drop off donations at the library during regular business hours.

We are not able to accept magazines, textbooks, encyclopedias, VHS, or cassette tapes.
