Print Nestled inside an old card catalog cabinet on the main floor of the Huntington Beach Central Library lies a Garden of Eden just waiting to be planted — after a long pandemic closure, the seed library is back. Closed in spring of 2020, the special collection was fully reopened to the public in mid-March and has since seen a surge in seed seekers, as residents sheltering in place this past year have looked to enrich their living environments. “People love it. They get so excited to come in and see what we have now,” said library services clerk Cynthia Flores. “With spring and planting season, I’ve seen all the excitement as kids come in and pick out seeds. Teachers are teaching kids about the cycle of the seed.”
