The library in Xiaoshi Town is the second living room for nearby residents. It has knowledge, people interact and surprise. During my time in the United States, I often walked to the library on several streets. The spacious apartments of the old owners donated to the community and designated as public library and were managed by the state library. There are often exhibitions in the library, and there is also a mini-house with seeds, which brings me the surprise of the whole season.
The mini bookstore stores well-packed seeds. Different seeds are placed in paper bags of business card size. The paper bags contain names and simple planting knowledge, including flowers and vegetables, for people to use. The Seed Library is a cabinet with many drawers. Each drawer contains a seed. These divisional tasks are the result of volunteer service. Just like a library borrows books, the library also welcomes the public to donate seeds, borrowing and resuming, and keeping them growing.
Outside the library is a large garden, and the nursery is opened in the corner of the garden. The enthusiastic library said that the seedlings and vegetable seedlings inside are also loaned collections provided by the Seed Library. You are welcome to use them, and there is no need to register. I took the small tomato and the nine-layer tower, plus the golden chrysanthemum and melon seeds obtained in the museum. I thought that when the melon ripens, I would keep some seeds and then return them to the library.
seeds are sources of energy that always attract my attention. In the holiday market, I know the plant artists Qiu Mei-chan and Blueslov, who have created the theme of seeds. Their ingenious hands highlight the shape and possibilities of seeds. In their hands, seeds transform from planting and food into tea, spoons, music instruments, toys, beads, hangings, festival accessories, fitness props, ……
Although more than 90% of the seeds placed on the seeds are collected locally in Taiwan, at least half of them are what I don’t know. Even the Du Ying trees in my yard are relatives of Du Ying, which is commonly known as Indian rosary trees, are all related to the fruit Du Ying, which is commonly known as Indian rosary trees. The son of Du Ying in the round fruit is the Bodhi son of Jin. I hope that Du Ying in my family will also have a body that is not bad, and he may even give birth to a baby.
Another thing that I can't put on is the mahogany seed shell. Take a 70-minute cooked seeds and cut them into a bevel, and when dried, it is a unique "tea sauce". The seed shell of the flame wood also has the same effect, and it is very suitable for tea mat props. Mahogany seeds with wings are natural toys that elementary school nature teachers often play with students. The seeds of the shellfish plant are made into finger gyros. Seeing who has strong rotation skills, they go to the market with their father and mother, and get together to play with seed gyros. The eyes are temporarily off the blue screen, and they follow Blueslow to play gyros on the small wooden plate.

Some seeds do not need to be polished and are born with draco-like textures, such as castor; some are as hard as a steel helmet, such as silver leaf roots; and some look like leather, such as jacaranda. Qiu Mei-Cheng and his wife, whenever they had time, they would go into the mountains and forests to pick up seeds, and ran through Taiwan to seeds. "Jinqi" is their own brand. For me, every seed is amazing, hope, and it also contains the most possibilities.
The seeds do not have to go to the mountains. Seeds commonly seen in kitchens can be created with clever thoughts. Blueslow made a melon seed painting with common pumpkins, winter melons, bitter melons and sunflower seeds. When I left Jin Qi's seeds, I found that the ground was filled with fragrant seeds falling from large trees. Mei-chan said that if I patiently pulled out the stings of fragrant seeds with a sharp mouth, I would see the beauty of surprise. I couldn't wait to try it!
