The Kwantlen Seed Library

It is officially Spring and that means it is a great time to start thinking about your garden. Did you know you can borrow seeds from the Library? At KPU's Langley Library, you'll find the Kwantlen Seed Library.

The mission of the Kwantlen Seed Library is as follows:

Our mission is to promote food security in our community through the preservation and exchange of locally grown and harvested seeds. We believe in keeping heirloom and open-pollinated varieties alive, in an effort to promote a more sustainable and biologically diverse food system. We also believe that in retaining the right to grow our own food, save seeds, and share our knowledge with one another, we can help to make a positive change towards a sustainable future.

For more information on how to borrow from the Seed Library, how to save seeds, and for books on gardening please our Seed Library Guide here
