Tinker ☀️<p>Alright! Meet and greet went really well. Both the Executive Director of all the libraries and the director of my specific branch were very interested in building out the tool library.</p><p>The Executive Director gave me her card and asked me to email her. She'll get me in touch with the project lead who would oversee this.</p><p>I'll reach out to them and see what the current plans are and if there are any obstacles to address.</p><p>This is exciting!!!!</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/solarPunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solarPunk</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/LibraryEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LibraryEconomy</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ToolLibrary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ToolLibrary</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/mutualAid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mutualAid</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/LibraryOfThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LibraryOfThings</span></a></p>
Tinker ☀️<p>Great news! My library got back to me!</p><p>They're interested in building out a seed library as well!!!</p><p>YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!</p><p>I'm developing some basic classes on how to do low-budget, simple, indoor (in any space) hydroponics. I'm also building out some starter kits to give away.</p><p>I'll see if the local library would like me to give these courses and kits when the seed library gets built as a way to promote it and get word out to the local community.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/solarPunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solarPunk</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/seedLibrary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>seedLibrary</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/postScarcity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>postScarcity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/libraryEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>libraryEconomy</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/indoorGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indoorGardening</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/urbanGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbanGardening</span></a></p>
Tinker ☀️<p>Alright, sent an email to the head of my local library about setting up a seed library there.</p><p>Seeds libraries are places you can go and "check out" seeds. Grow the seeds. Let one of the grown plants go to seed. Harvest the seeds. Then "return" the seeds back to the seed library!</p><p>Free seeds!!!!</p><p>Check and see if you have a seed library near you: <a href="https://www.communityseednetwork.org/map/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">communityseednetwork.org/map/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Or connect and share seeds with folks online:<br><a href="https://exchange.seedsavers.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">exchange.seedsavers.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/solarPunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solarPunk</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/seedLibrary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>seedLibrary</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/libraryEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>libraryEconomy</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/urbanGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbanGardening</span></a></p>
