When you have made your selections, click on the orange button and fill out the Seed Request Form. Once your request has been filled by library staff, you will be contacted to let you know when your seeds are available for pickup. (note: Seed requests may take a few days to process)

Individuals are allowed 20 packets per growing season—Fall/Winter (Sep-Feb) & Spring Summer (Mar-Aug)—for a total of 40 per year.
