Join us for the 3rd Annual Seed Library Kickoff! This event marks the start of the season for our popular Seed Library – a collaboration between the WHPL and The West Hartford Garden Club to expand community access to seeds and support gardeners of all skill levels. Join us to select free seeds for your garden, consult with Master Gardeners, and enter a raffle for a chance to win gardening supplies. Quantities are limited to three (3) packets per person.
Can’t make it to the event? No problem – the Seed Library will be accessible after the kickoff during library hours on the main floor of the Noah Webster Library.
Principles of Horizontal Design. More information will be provided soon.
Civic Projects has a “Let’s Plant a Seed” story time and gardening activity with children ages 3-5 at the Noah Webster Memorial Library Children’s Department.
Please plan to give us at least one hour of your time during the morning. Please bring your favorite tools for weeding and pruning. A co-chair will arrive at the garden by 8:30 a.m.
PARKING: Parking will be in the paved lot next to the Amos Bull House on South Prospect Street. We encourage you to carpool as space is limited.
We plan to work if the rain is light. If it is pouring, you will get a cancellation call by 8:00 a.m.
