As part of our commitment to enriching the community and supporting lifelong learning, the Yuma County Library District is thrilled to announce the launch of our Seed Library at the Heritage Library. With over 1,500 seed packets available, patrons can check out up to five packets per month with a library card, or three without, to start their own gardens. We’ll also be offering gardening classes to promote shared learning, connection, and sustainability.

SEED Library facts:

Anyone can use it, the Seed Library is open to all community members.

Library cardholders can receive up to 5 seed packets per month, while non-cardholders can receive up to 3 packets per month. Seeds are offered based on seasonal growing conditions, and availability is not guaranteed.

The Heritage Seed Library is open during regular business hours.
Patrons must visit the Heritage Branch in person to check out seeds. 
Seeds are not available through drive-thru windows, curbside pickup, or at other YCLD locations.

The Seed Library is housed within the Heritage Branch of the Yuma County Library District.

Bountiful Baskets is a group of people who choose to pool their money and purchase produce in large quantities from resalers at deep discounts; typically 6 fruits and 6 vegetables. This allows people to have more fresh produce for less money. There are also specialty items available at additional cost such as delicious sourdough or artisan or sandwich breads (all preservative-free) or items like organic maple syrup and bulk produce boxes. To participate, you must set up a free account on this website: https://www.bountifulbaskets.org/
Contributions are accepted beginning Mondays roughly at Noon local time, to Tuesday at 10 pm Mountain Standard Time or Arizona Time.
Location: Southgate Mall (Southeast parking lot)
Pickup every other Friday at 9am.
We love volunteers! If you are able to take a turn a few times a year, then show up at 7am and help us transfer produce from delivered boxes into participant baskets for pickup. Bringing a dolly or a wagon is optional but helpful.

Hey parents! Did you know your fourth-grade student is eligible for an annual pass to America’s public lands? With school almost out for the summer, this is the perfect time to get the pass.

The Every Kid Outdoors pass allows fourth graders and their families to receive free entrance to federal public lands and waters during their fourth-grade school year (September-August).

If you have a current fourth grader, log on to everykidoutdoors.gov with your student, complete an activity, then download and print your pass voucher. Redeem the printed voucher for the pass at thousands of federal public land sites throughout the country, including our public rooms at our offices. Call ahead for hours and more information.
