Learning for Life: Free seeds for your garden

Free seeds for your garden

Come on into the Extension Office on Kalifornsky Beach Road and pick up free seeds for your garden! These are being offered when you sign up to plant an extra 6 pack of vegetable starts to donate to the Food Bank gardens. In order to get the most from the garden space extra plants are needed in June, July and August to keep folks in fresh produce.

We are offering packets of seeds in exchange for your willingness to donate some plants to the Food Bank Garden. We also have an abundance of free publications designed to help you with your garden and greenhouse needs.

The Cooperative Extension Service office is located at 43961 Kalifornsky Beach Road, Suite A, Soldotna, AK 99669. Call 262-5824.
