Gear Library Info

  • Why a Gear Library?

    Braided Seeds’ goal is to remove barriers for BIPOC communities to reconnect with the land and water. Increasing gear access is a part of that. We are excited to offer a no-cost gear library so our community can experience the outdoors with the necessary equipment.

  • Interested in Donating Gear?

    If you have new or gently used gear that is looking for a new home, we would love to add your donated gear to the Braided Seeds Gear Library for community use. Email us at info@braidedseeds.org, and we will follow-up with you.

  • How Does This Work?

    Use our gear reservation system by clicking the button below, and then add the gear you need into your cart and checkout. We ask that gear reservations are made 10 days in advance. Our team needs about 72 hours to follow-up with you after you make your reservation. We will coordinate pick-up and drop-off logistics via email. You can borrow the gear for up to three weeks.

  • When Is the Gear Library Open?

    The online reservation system is open 24 hours.

    Pick up and drop off will be coordinated directly with you based on staff availability and your schedule.
