Seed Library

It's time to harvest the seeds from your garden to share them with the Essca community. 

The Media Library, in cooperation with Pascale Beldent, Sustainability/CSR Project Manager, and Julien Chaudet, Landscape Architect, is launching the Essca Seed Library. 

How to proceed? 

• Pick up empty sachets at the Media Library. 

• Choose one or more of the healthiest and most beautiful plants. 

• Wait as long as possible for the seeds to mature. 

• On a dry day, extract the seeds and let them dry. 

• Place the seeds in sachets and label them with the variety, location, and date of harvest. 

• Return the filled sachets to the Media Library. 

• In spring, choose the seeds you want to plant in your garden and/or vegetable patch. 

Examples of easy seeds to harvest: tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, beans, peas, broad beans. For flowers, most annuals.
