We have a small section of flowers, but the idea is that we're offering a source of food for the community," said Spielbauer."Right in the corner, is the library's seed library, hundreds of packets, of dozens of different things you can grow in your garden."'So the seeds are a self-service station. People do not have to give their name or anything. They can just come in and take what they will use,' said Spielbauer."The seeds are free, but there is a tremendous perk for getting them here that you just don't get buying them at the store."'You get these green thumbs together and they start talking about their favorite things to grow. And like I said, sharing tips and tricks together,' said Spielbauer."The seed library offers all the things you might expect to grow here in Northern Michigan...and a few that have sparked some curiosity."'One thing that I've not seen go and I'm really interested if someone would report back is the okra.
