Seed Swap

EB Grow, created by the East Brunswick Public Library and Friends of the East Brunswick Environmental Commission present a Seed Swap!

What is a seed swap?

Seed swaps are events where gardeners meet to exchange seeds and learn and share their knowledge with others.

What should I bring?

If you are able, bring harvested or packaged seeds, tubers, bulbs, or starts, a photo of the plant and any growing information if possible.

Seedling Swap - INDOORS

We have moved indoors to the EB Create makerspace.

Did too many of your seeds sprout? Come bring your seedlings to swap with other gardeners inside our EB Create makerspace.

The swap is part of the EB Grow Seed Lending Library, in co-sponsorship with the Friends of the EB Environmental Commission.

What's it Worth

We all have antiques and collectibles around our homes. But do you know their value?

The East Brunswick Friends of the Library are teaming up with Bodnar’s Auctions for the special “What’s It Worth?” event at East Brunswick Public Library (2 Civic Center Drive) on Sunday, May 5 from 1:15 pm to 4:00 pm.
