The Yorkton Public Library (YPL) will soon be offering more than books, movies, video games, and albums for members to check out.

YPL is collecting seeds from gardeners and planting-enthusiasts. They’re creating a “seed library,” an impressive assortment of future plants and vegetables.

“We have a large gardening community in Yorkton,” said Meagan Richards, who works at YPL. “[The seed library] will be neat.”

People can drop their plant seeds off at YPL, where they’ll be collected until November. In February, the seed library will be open to the public. People will be able to take seeds from the library and start their own gardening adventures.
