Spring has officially sprung, and what better way to celebrate than by sprouting new beginnings with the Medical Center Library & Archives' new Seed Library! Inspired by our Medical Garden, our goal is to help our community cultivate gardens filled with medicinal and native plants.
Located at the Service Desk on Level 2R, the Seed Library offers a variety of seeds that are completely free and ready to plant! Most of these seeds fall within the medicinal and native plant categories, making them perfect for those interested in growing a garden with health benefits and ecological value.
Seeds currently available:
- Eastern Columbine
- Cardinal Flower
- Hoary Skullcap
- Narrowleaf Mountain Mint
- New Jersey Tea
- Orange Coneflower
- French Marigold
- Morning Glory
- Butterfly Weed
- White Yarrow Seeds
- Bee Balm Lemon Mint
We plan to offer new batches of seeds twice a year, with the potential of accepting seed donations.
Stop by, pick up your seeds of choice, and get to gardening! Happy Spring!
