[SLI-public] Donations for library community gardens

[Rebekkah Smith Aldrich]

Hi Danielle,
I'm not sure if this helps or not but the Library Farm of the Northern Onondaga Public Library has a "Library Farm Rules & Responsibilities" document that I find interesting: https://www.nopl.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/2022-LibraryFarm-Rules-and-Responsibilities.pdf
Be well,
Rebekkah

Hi everyone,

Comsewogue Public Library is in the process of planning a community garden. We advertised it as "coming soon" in our summer newsletter and a patron expressed interest in donating plants for it. To those of you with gardens, do you have a policy or procedure in place for accepting donations of plants or seeds? Any other feedback that could be helpful as we plan?

Thank you!
