My local library has a seed library, it’s free. My experience with this is mixed as some of the plants germanated were not what the seeds were labeled. I also get seeds from Gurneys online and have had success there.
Pots and planters i get from big box stores, as these tend to be cheaper here.
Actual plants I get from local nurseries, we have several within 30 minutes drive.
I grow mostly food, and I plant root ends of green onions, sprouting garlic, and sprouting potatoes with a lot of success. Careful with the potatoes, as the grocery store potatoes may have blight whereas seed potatoes from the nursery should not.

How does the seed library work? Does the library purchase seeds and distribute them for free? Or do they take donations or something like that? I’m curious.
