Tierra Sagrada Seed Library

Welcome to Tierra Sagrada, Branigan Library's pop-up community seed sharing program. The Tierra Sagrada Seed Library was created to facilitate regionally-specific food and plant growing and to cultivate a community of seed savers.

Seeds will be available for most of the year, while supplies last.  Library patrons can check out up to 10 packets of seeds, per season, on their library card. For more information, use the menu links at the top of the page or use the contact form.
