The Ottawa Wildflower Seed Library is a local grassroots organization that promotes gardening with native plants to provide food and habitat for bees, butterflies, insects, birds and other wildlife. It hosts native plant giveaways each summer. Last summer, the giveaways saw more than 500 people attend and take home free native plants for their gardens.
