Seed Library

February 18, 2026 by Staff Writer

The Mattapoisett Library Announces the Reopening of its Seed Exchange  

The Mattapoisett Library is excited to announce the return of our beloved Seed Library. As the days grow longer and the snow gradually melts away, it’s a perfect time for local gardeners and nature enthusiasts to prepare for spring planting. Whether you’re starting a new garden or expanding your collection, our Seed Library is restocked and ready for you. 

This season, we’re offering a wide variety of plants, including mizuna, parsnips, beets, tomatoes, kale, radishes, peas, and corn. We also have native wildflowers to beautify any landscape! Supplies are limited. Please take only what you need so we can ensure plenty for everyone.

Seeds do not need to be returned. However, we encourage patrons to bring in any seeds they’ve collected or no longer need when they come check out new ones. And while you’re here, visit our Library of Things for all the tools and kits necessary to dig in and grow a garden, including Soil Testing Kits, Soil Block Kits, Tillers, and more! 

The Seed Library is free and open to everyone, regardless of gardening experience. Patrons only need an active SAILS library card to participate.

No library card? No worries! Just bring your ID and sign up for one when you visit to browse our seed selection. Library cards are free and provide access to resources offered at the MFPL and surrounding SAILS libraries.   

Stop by 7 Barstow Street in Mattapoisett and borrow what you need to start your garden today! For more information, visit the library, email mfpl@sailsinc.org, or call us at 508-758-4171.
