Get Involved

We’re pleased you’ve found us!
There are so many ways to get involved. Whether you browse our resources, drop by a working bee or return/donate seeds from your patch. 

Donate Seeds

It's the kindness and generosity of local gardeners who have a bumper crop or an abundance of plants that let some go to seed which keeps us ticking. Whether it's common parsley or a rare gem - we love local seeds! Tomatoes, Pumpkins, Broccoli or Poppy we package them up and they all go out on loan!

Clearly label and date your donation. The more info the better. Drop your clean, dry and bug-free seeds to the Castlemaine Library. Or bring them along to a monthly working bee. Contact us for extra details or if you have any questions.

Monthly Working Bees

Our popular working bees are the key gathering for our team. We come together to make up our custom seed packets, sort donated and returned seeds and chat about all the happenings in our gardens. Community members often return/donate seeds, which is lovely to put faces to our borrowers and is a chance for them to tell us about their seeds and growing experiences.

First Thursday each month (exc. Jan & Jul) 11am – 12 noon

Location: Castlemaine Goldfields Library
212 Barker street, Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia.

Come for a chat, donate seeds, make up some packets, share what’s going on in your garden while we re-stock the board. 

We’re looking forward to meeting you! Just pop along or email us at castlemaineseedlibrary@gmail.com
