Greenville Library adds seed catalogue

Apr 14, 2022 12:56 pm

Porcupine Soup reports that the Greenville Public Library has added a new seed library. “My hope is to get our community involved in saving and sharing heirloom flower and vegetable seeds in a seed library,” says Ashley Jensen of Surprise Hill Farm in Freehold. A variety of seeds will now be available in a catalogue there. “There are hundreds of thousands of varieties of seeds on our planet, and each time we save a seed, we are saving the genetic information of a variety of plant that can successfully live in our type of environment,” Jensen explains. “We are asking for people that would like to help with this project. We need help packaging and cataloging seeds and growing information in the old card catalog of the Greenville Library,” she said. “We will have a place at the Greenville Library for people to drop off their seeds and write a little info about the variety, or to sign up and volunteer with this project.” For more information, contact Jensen at surprisehillfarm@gmail.com.
