Alright, sent an email to the head of my local library about setting up a seed library there.
Seeds libraries are places you can go and "check out" seeds. Grow the seeds. Let one of the grown plants go to seed. Harvest the seeds. Then "return" the seeds back to the seed library!
Free seeds!!!!
Check and see if you have a seed library near you: https://www.communityseednetwork.org/map/
Or connect and share seeds with folks online:

Great news! My library got back to me!
They're interested in building out a seed library as well!!!
YAYAYAYAY!!!!!!
I'm developing some basic classes on how to do low-budget, simple, indoor (in any space) hydroponics. I'm also building out some starter kits to give away.
I'll see if the local library would like me to give these courses and kits when the seed library gets built as a way to promote it and get word out to the local community.

Actual cookbooks are better than online recipe slop sites.
Physical cookbooks are great.
Cool thing though, if you want to search for digital recipes online but don't want slop sites, use your local library's app and just check out an eCookbook.
It's even ad free!
(You can also go checkout a physical cookbook as well! They have an entire section at your library for them! 641.5x under the dewey decimal system!)

Quoting
I’ve come to believe that the vast majority of recipes on the internet are bad and physical cookbooks are more important than ever
Except for a handful of recipe creators I really trust (King Arthur for baking, old seriouseats, etc)
I prefer physical cookbooks
