About the event
Hello, Plant Lovers!
Why buy new when you can swap? Our Second Annual Community Plant & Seed Swap is back and better than ever! Join Friends of the Chelsea Library on Saturday, April 18th from 1 to 3 PM at the Chelsea Public Library for a garden party where the currency is plants, seeds, and stories.
What to Bring:
Labeled plants in pots or with roots wrapped in damp paper towels
Seeds in labeled envelopes or containers (no mystery packets, please!)
Garden tools or pots you no longer need
Your gardening questions and wisdom to share
Why You'll Love This Event:
Take home fresh varieties to add some spice to your garden drama
Clear out overgrown plants by sharing the love (and the dirt)
Learn insider growing tips from local gardening pros who know their stuff
Connect with a community that’s as passionate about plants as you are
Support sustainable gardening practices—because Mother Nature deserves a standing ovation
No plants to swap? No problem! First-timers and green thumbs alike are welcome to take home starter plants. Our mission? To nurture both plants and the community’s love for all things green and growing.
Got questions? Just send us an email, and we’ll get back to you faster than a vine can climb a trellis.
Happy swapping and happy growing!
Note: Please ensure all plants are healthy, non-invasive, and pest-free.
We can’t wait to see you there! Your participation helps support the Chelsea Public Library and cultivates a vibrant community of readers and gardeners alike. For more info, visit our website or swing by the library.
