Would you like to donate something? In a few shorts weeks we will begin planting in our classroom hydroponic garden and we can't wait! If you would like to donate seeds, we would be most grateful. In the past parents have donated things like basil, mint, chard, lettuce, and cilantro seeds. Herbs do very well in our garden and we can't wait to send some home for you to enjoy.
If you would rather not order online or go to the store, you can head to the Baldwin Public Library free seed store! Follow this link and they will get the seeds ready for you! Baldwin Library Free Seed Library! Please choose any herbs you like, kale, lettuce, mixed greens, spinach, or cabbage. PLEASE DO NOT SEND IN SEEDS FOR FRUITS, VEGETABLES OR FLOWERS. Thank you!
