Seed and Food Sovereignty Resource Library
 

About

A public and free Seed and Food Sovereignty resource library is underway, located at the entrance to Pow Wow Grounds/NACDI Headquarters, 1414 E Franklin Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55404. This collaborative library space seeks to bring together Food Sovereignty-related texts and growing guides, while providing access to high-quality organic, heirloom, saved, and culturally specific seeds. 

 

Seeds available consist of: common edible garden species, as well as medicinal herbs, perennial and annual wildflowers, shrubs, and trees. Stop by to take some seeds. We are working to pack more!

Get Involved:

- Visit the Pow Wow Grounds to pick up seeds. We are working to keep up with demand and keep a diverse range of seeds stocked!

- Donate your saved seed via the Donate Seed box found next to the seed organizer
