Start your fall gardening with free seeds from Chatham-Kent Public Library.
CKPL Grows Fall Seed Library program will launch on Tuesday, September 6.
All branches are offering a variety of plant seeds for residents to grow.
To celebrate the launch of this program, the library will be hosting a virtual presentation on planting for pollinators delivered by Lorraine Johnson and sponsored by the Sydenham Field Naturalists.
