Richmond Food Security Society - Richmond Community Seed Library

Just like checking out a book from a book library, seed library members can check out seeds from the seed library. Members then plant the seeds, grow the plants, and let some go to seed. Seeds are then collected, dried, cleaned, labelled and returned to the library for use by members the next year.

A seed library promotes food security by encouraging the community to keep and exchange food plant seeds that are grown locally and organically and are open-pollinated. It also works to increase community members engagement with our food system and overall level of self-sufficiency. Through this project, we aim to grow a robust local food system with increased food production and food security across Richmond.
