BUCKSPROUTS SEED LIBRARY
Embedded Files
The Buck Memorial Library is conducting a survey as we prepare our strategic plan for the future. Please help us assess our needs for the future.
The Bucksprouts Seed Library is now open! Community members can come take seeds to plant and grow their own flowers and vegetables. Our initial seed donation was through the generosity of High Mowing Seeds with additional seeds donated by Mainescape and other patrons. Our intent is for gardeners to learn how to save seeds so that we can provide this resource for years to come. Many thanks to all of our dedicated volunteers who made this possible. Come take some seeds, learn gardening tips, and network with others who garden too.
