Work with fellow volunteers to pack seeds for our 2025 Seed Library! Join in on some literal bean counting, use your finger to measure out teensy oregano bits, and use scoops of different sizes to measure out flower seeds.  

To sign up for this event, visit the listing on our Better Impact volunteer site.

The process to sign up is easy! Complete a short application, choose your date, and then show up at the Library! This event will take place at Warren (9701 East 21st Street, Indianapolis, IN 46229). Get directions to Warren.

A seed packing group looks a lot like an assembly line. Everyone will have a dedicated job and work for 2-3 hours on a selected seed project. Tasks include:  

  • Labeling coin-sized envelopes with identifying information about our seeds  
  • Using tools (scoops, cups, or even a fingertip) to fill packets with seed  
  • Sealing envelopes with small stickers to ensure the seeds are secure and ready for patrons 
  • Bundling seed packets with provided rubber bands  
  • Keeping an accurate count of the seed packets completed to support our system-wide inventory  

What is Seed Library? 

The Indianapolis Public Library Seed Library offers FREE seeds to patrons so they can grow plants that sustain them. We also offer workshops to help you learn the skills you need to grow a seed into a mature plant. Visit indypl.org/calendar to see our upcoming garden programs & events.

About the branch

A new 16,000-square-foot branch for Warren Township opened in 1974, positioned adjacent to Lakeside Elementary School and northeast of Warren Central High School. After a fire in 1979, the branch closed for seven months. A $1.1 million renovation completed in 2016 was the first major renovation since the Warren Branch originally opened.
