Little Veg Libraries (LVLs) are permanently-mounted stalls at prominent sites where seedlings, surplus locally-grown veg, seeds, recipes and more (including compost) can be shared.

We are grateful to Neil Hollingworth from North Leeds Joinery for the prototype design and build, and Leeds Community Foundation for funding. Groups can recreate this design or make their own – below are some design ideas, anything suitable will do!

We can supply a LVL Logo to use (or you can create your own), then once installed we’ll list yours on the map – please do let us know when you are up and running so we can list your library on the map.

If you would like to make your own LVL or enquire about purchasing a ready made one contact Leeds Wood Recycling or Hyde Park Source to see if they are able to help.

People are also installing Little Seed Libraries. These tend to be indoors this the ones below in Seacroft, but all things are possible!

Leeds Hedge Veg is a more informal network of places where surplus veg is available for free or very cheaply – usually from boxes or a basic stall in a hedge or on a wall. These are shown on the map – which also shows the Xchange sites for Sow a Row Xtra. Contact us to register a Hedge Veg site.
