Although there is no longer a seed library in the building of Preston Royal Library, patrons can still request free seeds to be sent from the Central Seed Library.
Residents interested in requesting seeds can fill out an online form, and will be notified when they arrive.
To make a seed donation, residents can fill out a seed library donation form or pick one up at a Dallas Public Library location. Library officials ask that seeds be clean, dry, clearly labeled, and in a sealed container.
