Fife Seed Library is an emerging community of local growers and gardeners committed to understanding our environmental impact and developing more resilient, sustainable local ecosystems.
Our aims
We set up the Fife Seed Library in 2025 so that we can:
Offer people in Fife free access to organic, open-pollinated seeds.
Grow a library of diverse seeds adapted and resilient to the Fife climate.
Develop skills, knowledge and resources related to seed saving, biodiversity, soil health and sustainable growing and gardening practices across the region.
Cultivate seed stewardship to build climate, food and community resilience.
Participate in international, local and Scotland-wide seed networks and exchanges.
Connect seed saving in Fife to marginalised practices, cultures and histories of earth care and land resistance, here and around the world.
Our model
Empowering
Our practical workshops are designed so that everyone can come with nothing, leave with something.
Sharing
Our events make space for knowledge sharing and discussion among people with different levels of experiences and skills.
Inclusive
Skill and physical ability are no barrier to participation. We make sure climate action through seed saving and related activities are accessible to all.
Community-propelled
We always ask our members and participants what they want next, and co-create our programme and activities.
