Putting this here for all y'all looking for seeds from time to time

The Library is freshly restocked for the weekend with lots of flower and veggie seeds!

If you visit and it’s raining, please go through the seed box in your car or on our front porch to keep the seeds dry. ☔️

Also, don’t forget about this Sunday’s Apex/Cary Gardeners plant swap! It’s a great chance to trade plants, seeds, and supplies with fellow plant geeks. 😁

We hope to see you soon!

It's raining! We are in a severe drought and this won't make up the deficit but it helps!

I implore you to consider the simple joy gardening brings the kids. Just doing something different at recess is such a gift to them. Being an adult who will listen to them talk is a gift to them. Letting them get wet, dirty, and to eat something straight from the garden is a gift to them. Please consider volunteering in this program. ❤️ I will miss it as my youngest ages up and out of elementary this year❤️
