SUMMARY:Seed Swap Giveaway - Nine Square Feet
DESCRIPTION:Nine Square Feet is partnering with other Iowa libraries to host the largest simultaneous statewide seed swap ever on National Seed Swap Day.  And the Orange City Public Library is one of them! \nLike a traditional seed swap\, “swappers” are encouraged to bring packaged and labeled seeds\, saved from plants grown last year\, to swap and share with the community.  But unlike most seed swaps\, free seeds are available to all attendees\, even those that have no seeds to swap.  Every adult attendee can select up to five free seed packets\, and children under 12 can pick two free packets of their very own. \nNine Square Feet has identified veggie and herb varieties suited for small space gardeners and selected easy-to-grow\, tried-and-true garden staples for beginners. Experienced gardeners come to find something unique and special that they’ve never grown before!
