The Burnham Memorial Seed Library is a collaboration between the Library and the UVM Extension Master Gardener Program. The Master Gardener Program's mission is to cultivate resilient and healthy communities and be the most trusted resource for horticulture education in Vermont.
Our mission is to promote food security through equal access to seeds for Vermont communities. The seed library is a free resource that operates on the honor system. One seed equals one plant so take only what you need!
Patrons are encouraged to learn basic seed saving techniques. The Library will host seed saving and other gardening related programs throughout the year led by a local Master Gardener. Please fill out our survey about future gardening program by scanning the QR code below.
