COUNTY News:

The Los Alamos Public Library will launch the second year of the Los Alamos Community Seed Library 1-3 p.m. today, March 2.

At both Mesa Public Library and White Rock Branch Library, local gardening experts will be on hand to help you choose the best seeds for your garden and offer tips and guidance to growing in the unique challenges of both White Rock and Los Alamos. There will be birthday cake, seed games and paper crafts for the whole family.

It has been a successful first year for the Los Alamos Community Seed Library, with almost 1,500 packages of seeds borrowed from the Seed Library’s locations at White Rock Branch Library, Mesa Public Library and at Pajarito Environmental Education Center. Gardeners also harvested and returned thousands more seeds to be repackaged by the Seed Library volunteers.
