Camden County launches its seed saving library to grow the community's knowledge on sustainable gardening.

One county in southern New Jersey is looking to grow the community's knowledge on sustainable gardening with a new seed saving program for residents.Seed saving libraries are programs that are already in full bloom in other parts of the state, but in Camden County this is the first year they're launching the initiative.

Leaders with the program will have experts available to help first-time gardeners with tips and tricks to help them flourish."You don't have to have a big garden in order to grow seeds. You can grow it on the windowsill in a pot if you got one tomato, you could have 100 seeds," Camden County certified gardener Caliope Bledy told NBC10.

County officials also said they want to see more people growing plants and flowers local to our area to help with biodiversity.
