Glasgow Seed Library

Idea in a Nutshell

Glasgow Seed Library proposes to establish a circular food waste composting system at Centre for Contemporary Arts, Glasgow. This would enable all food waste from the tenants, staff, cafe and bar to be processed on site and turned into usable and nutritious compost, made available on a monthly basis for our seed library community and other members of the public, locally and from other parts of the city, to collect alongside seeds from Glasgow Seed Library.

Experience

Glasgow Seed Library is a collection of seeds and a community of growers.

The library stocks organic and open-pollinated vegetable, herb and flower seeds for everyone to borrow, grow and save. By learning to save and share seed locally, we can nurture unique varieties and adapt our plants to a changing Scottish climate.

Throughout the year, we run free workshops, talks and events around seed saving, community growing, food justice and earth care. Stay in touch on Instagram or drop us an email on [email protected]
