Pocket Seed Library Seed Apothecary, Zoey Kroll, 2008
FREE RANGE is an ongoing series of events, walks, meetings, and public projects developed by a group of artists whose work deals with issues of the environment whether it be through farming, gardening, or working with city policy makers to improve our urban experience. The Pocket Seed Library is an ongoing collection of seed packets and growing instructions designed to encourage people to plant, save and share seeds. Everyone is invited to contribute seeds and neighborhood plant lore to the library. Southern Exposure will house a permanent collection of seed packets after the October event below and encourages continued participation in this project. Pocket Seed Library Event: A Garden Picnic: How Seeds Travel Saturday, October 18, 12 - 4 pm Calling all gardeners, citizen scientists, and picnickers! Enjoy city-grown food and participate in a group planting party. Picnickers will get two mystery seed packets-one to plant right away and one to experiment with later. Information designers and picnic organizers, Zoey Kroll and Erin Wilson, will gather the results of these neighborhood garden experiments to create a cataloging system for the Pocket Seed Library. Seeds and salad provided. Bring a dish to share and RSVP so we know how much lettuce to grow.
