Reading Public Library

Community Room (A & B)

An all ages event to share seedlings and cuttings with neighbors.

Drop in to chat with neighbors and celebrate spring by trading cuttings of indoor plants and perennials or any extra seedlings that you started.  The RPL Seed Library will be there, too.  You never know what you might find!

Stay for some fun all-ages activities including a potting station to plant some seeds, and try a creative family-friendly gardening craft.

Attendees will be eligible for a raffle of a free giveaway of a propagation station or a watering kit!

Not sure how to get started propagating your own plants to bring to the exchange? Here's a helpful houseplant propagation beginner guide!

This program is supported by grant funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.
