Seed Library

Welcome to the Seed Library!

What is a Seed Library? 

A community-based initiative where members of the Merrimack College community can find and take home seeds of various vegetables, herbs, and flowers! Seed Libraries help promote biodiversity and supports sustainability and agriculture. Community members can access seeds for gardening, growing their own food, or beautifying their surroundings. Seed Libraries foster community engagement, education, and empowerment in cultivating one's own food sources. 

Where is the Seed Library?
You can find the Seed Library in the basement of the McQuade Library.
