Seed Donations

January 5, 2026

Thanks to an amazing number of seed donation requests, we have wrapped up our seed donations for this year.

Thank you for the overwhelming interest. We have reached capacity for our seed donations for this year as we have a limited supply of seeds each year, and we do our best to support everyone we can.

We love sharing the love of growing peppers and vegetables with Seed Libraries and other organizations. We are thankful for all of the organizations and groups that are helping their community through seed libraries and other seed sharing opportunities. Every year we donate lots of seeds to seed libraries, non-profits and community gardens.

We also offer Bulk Seeds and Wholesale Seeds to many organizations.

We love seed libraries and community gardens!!

Sandia Seed often provides seed donations to seed libraries, community gardens, non-profits and fundraisers each fall. We've donated to many seed libraries, fundraisers, community gardens and more over the years – and we're happy to share seeds with communities all over the United States.
