As of April 23, 2024, another FVRL library branch now has a seed library – Cascade Park!

Free seeds are available at the Cascade Park, Washougal, White Salmon branches and MAIN Vancouver branch of the Fort Vancouver Regional Library AND also at the Longview library!

Remember, some seeds should be sown in fall – especially some flowers – it is “nature’s way” for the seed heads to form during summer, then mature and the seeds fall off onto the ground to begin the next cycle!

If you have extra seeds, you can donate back INTO the libraries, too!

Thank you to all the libraries for hosting the seed libraries, too!   The Master Gardeners of Clark County and other volunteers for “stocking” the FVRL branches.  The Longview library allows patrons to check out online or in person and has many other seed related activities.   Check out both the below links to learn more!

If you don’t spot the seeds right away please do ask a librarian where they are and how to “check” them out.
