JEWL Seed Library

Mission

The JEWL Seed Library seeks to provide the MTSU community with free vegetable, flower, and herb seeds to promote sustainability and healthy eating. The seed library serves as a unique educational resource that benefits both the campus and the wider community.

This project was initially funded by a grant from the MTSU Sustainable Campus Fee Program in 2025.

Core Values

How It Works

1. Browse through the seed library and select up to 5 packets per week.
