URI Cooperative Extension is pleased to offer Burpee® seed packets to individuals, schools and other nonprofit organizations in Rhode Island beginning now through Friday, January 13, 2023. Interested in free seed packets? Visit the Free Seed Program webpage to access the seed order form. Orders for individuals and families are available by mail only for the cost of shipping; organizations may arrange for in-person pick-up on January 14 or January 21 in Kingston for a flat handling fee, or request that their order be mailed.

Please note that seed orders are filled on a first-come, first-served basis by our URI Master Gardener volunteers. We thank you in advance for your patience once you place your order, as our operation is volunteer-staffed. Please allow four weeks for delivery if you are ordering by mail.

The Free Seed Program is possible due to the generosity of the Ocean State Job Lot (OSJL) Charitable Foundation, which donates still viable seeds from OSJL stores to URI Cooperative Extension annually. Curious about what to grow and when? Check out our Gardening Resource Library for reference! Happy growing!
