Planting a Seed Library – Sustainable Martha’s Vineyard documentary series

In this episode, we speak with Ken Greene, Managing and Creative Director of Hudson Valley Seed Library and Noli Taylor, director of Island Grown Schools, about the importance of seeds, and what it means to start a “seed library.”

From the Martha’s Vineyard Community Seed Library webpage:
“A collaborative project of the West Tisbury Public Library, Island Grown Schools, and The FARM Institute, the Martha’s Vineyard Community Seed Library brings the knowledge of how to save seeds back to our island community while creating a central space where seeds can be freely shared. Over time we aim to create a locally adapted collection of seeds, and a community of growers engaged in the ancient practice of seed saving. By saving and sharing seeds, we can increase local food security, strengthen our sense of self reliance, and safeguard genetic diversity while honoring the age old tradition of passing down seeds from generation to generation.”
