Our Seed Library is open!

• Instead of borrowing a book, choose an envelope of seeds to grow in your garden. You must be a library member. It’s free to join! Ask at your local branch or sign up online.
• Select from a wide range of vegetables and flowers.
• If you grow something that does well in our area, donate some seeds to grow our collection and share them with others.
• Improve your chance of successful gardening by growing things that have been tried and tested here in the Latrobe City climate.
• At harvest time, think about collecting, saving and returning some seeds to grow the library collection!
• Make sure seeds are clean and dry by removing as much chaff as possible.
• Label your seeds. We provide the labels. Write as much information on the packet as possible. 
• Share! If you have lots of seeds, we can take them to share with local schools and community gardens too!

• Encourage people to plant and grow their own seasonal produce.
• Variety of seeds available including vegetables and herbs.
• Access local knowledge and know-how to improve your chance of a successful harvest.
• Free, friendly classes to learn about growing plants, saving seeds and cooking your produce.

However small or large your garden, however limited your gardening knowledge, we will support you.
