Seeing how much Alaska relies on imports for food and gardening, Melina Sevigny asked herself, how could she help Alaska's food security?

She started the Mat-Su Seed Library, a shelf located in Wasilla, AK at The Wandering Cafe, equipped with seeds acclimated to Alaska.

Melina has built shelves in Wasilla, Trapper creek, and is currently working on one in Big Lake, Alaska.
