Travis Dodson, creator of the library’s Seed Share Station, will share his knowledge of basic seed saving practices. Seed saving is an ancient tradition which allows us to maintain control over our own local food supply, without the need to continually purchase new seed from companies far away.

Whether you’re new to seed saving and gardening, or are a seasoned “green thumb” expert, come and meet other gardeners and share your own ideas, experiences, and seed you may have saved yourself. The event will include a community exchange of seeds and plant cuttings (due to fire ant risk, no soil, please!).

Travis is also looking for new volunteers to help maintain the library’s Seed Share Station. The more who get involved, the better the station will be for everybody!

Call the North Kohala Public Library at 889-6655 for more information. Program schedule is subject to change. Contact the library 15 days in advance if a sign language interpreter or other special accommodation is required.
