Sow. Grow. Eat. Repeat! Seed Library
The Victor Harbor Library hosts the first seed library in Victor Harbor and the Fleurieu within a library. Here you will find helpful information about what to grow in our area in each season, how to save your seed and other advice to get you growing.
How does a seed library work?
It’s simple: gardeners “borrow” seeds from the seed library. At the end of the growing season, they save seeds from the plants and return a portion of the seeds to the library. The community can also donate seeds which will be processed ready for the library by our wonderful volunteers.
