Find the seeds

You can find our seeds inside a yellow cabinet near the entrance of The Mitchell Library.

Feel free to browse, borrow and deposit seeds when visiting. Please record the seeds you have borrowed or returned, using the log book.

If you are saving seed this year and plan to return some to the library, you can complete our seed deposit form (find paper copies inside the cabinet). This will help us understand more about your seed’s journey and what next year's growers can expect from it.

We have created a new stamp system to help make our seed collection accessible to a range of growers, especially anyone who is new to growing or has limited space for growing. The stamps also highlight seeds which are rare or unusual, as well as those were grown and saved locally, emphasising the care and time invested in adapting seed to our Glasgow conditions.

The seed library is a free resource for anyone – we only ask that growers aim to return some seed at the end of the season for the community to grow the following year!
