Seed Swap

EB Grow, created by the East Brunswick Public Library and Friends of the East Brunswick Environmental Commission present a Seed Swap!

What is a seed swap?

Seed swaps are events where gardeners meet to exchange seeds and learn and share their knowledge with others.

What should I bring?

If you are able, bring harvested or packaged seeds, tubers, bulbs, or starts, a photo of the plant and any growing information if possible.

Seedling Swap - INDOORS

We have moved indoors to the EB Create makerspace.

Did too many of your seeds sprout? Come bring your seedlings to swap with other gardeners inside our EB Create makerspace.

The swap is part of the EB Grow Seed Lending Library, in co-sponsorship with the Friends of the EB Environmental Commission.

What's it Worth

We all have antiques and collectibles around our homes. But do you know their value?

The East Brunswick Friends of the Library are teaming up with Bodnar’s Auctions for the special “What’s It Worth?” event at East Brunswick Public Library (2 Civic Center Drive) on Sunday, May 5 from 1:15 pm to 4:00 pm.

Hour of the Witch

Boston, 1662. Mary Deerfield is twenty-four-years-old. Her skin is porcelain, her eyes delft blue, and in England she might have had many suitors. But here in The New World, amid this community of saints, Mary is the second wife of Thomas Deerfield, a man as cruel as he is powerful. When Thomas, prone to drunken rage, drives a three-tined fork into the back of Mary's hand, she resolves that she must divorce him to save her life. But in a world where every neighbor is watching for signs of the devil, Mary soon finds herself the object of suspicion and rumor.

Nearly eighty years later, Gretel Fernsby lives a life that is a far cry from her traumatic childhood. When a couple moves into the flat below her in her London mansion block, it should be nothing more than a momentary inconvenience. However, the appearance of their nine-year-old son Henry brings back memories she would rather forget.
