Ready to bring your garden to life with new plant varieties? Join the Seed Swap at the Delaware County District Library’s Delaware Branch, happening now through November 2! 🌱 The event takes place on the second floor near the Reference Desk, where you can trade your extra seeds and pick up new ones for free. Bring your gardening spirit and a handful of seeds to share!

🌼 Why Seed Swaps Are a Must for Gardeners

🌍 Preserve Biodiversity

Seed swaps help maintain a wide genetic variety of plants by exchanging rare and heirloom seeds that aren’t always available commercially. Keeping this diversity alive is key for strong, resilient gardens and sustainable food sources. 🌽🍅

🤝 Build Community Connections

These events aren’t just about swapping seeds—they’re also about growing friendships! You can exchange gardening tips, tricks, and experiences with local gardeners. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, it’s a fun, casual way to learn from others. 🌟

💸 Grow More, Spend Less

Seed swaps make gardening more affordable! 🌷 Participants can experiment with new seeds and plants without buying them, making it a budget-friendly option to refresh your garden.

🌿 Celebrate Cultural Heritage

By sharing seeds with deep roots—like those passed down through generations—participants help preserve cultural heritage. You might discover seeds that have special significance in different cultures, adding unique flavors and colors to your garden. 🌺
