Join us as the Launch Party for the Yankton Seed Library on Tuesday, January 19, 2-4 p.m., at the Yankton Community Library, 515 Walnut Street.  Enjoy tastings of foods that can be made with this year’s seed offerings.  Tastings are being prepared by Avera Sacred Heart Hospital and Hy-Vee.

The seed cabinet will be open and attendees can register for membership in the Yankton Seed Library.  At 4 p.m., the Yankton Chamber of Commerce will have a ribbon cutting ceremony. 

Classes by Missouri Valley Master Gardeners will take place at the library beginning in the month of February.  Each time a class is offered, the seed cabinet will be open and those attending classes will be given seeds of their choice free of charge. 

This year’s seed offerings are green bean, green pepper, pumpkin, kale, tomato, cucumber, zinnia, bachelor button, four o’clock, and holly hock.  All seeds and classes are free of charge.
