Thank you for your submissions, the logo contest has now ended
Example logo
Please see this space for our new logo for this website and our seed packets soon...
The Seed Lending Library loans open pollinated seeds to the community to plant and enjoy. At the end of the growing season, "the borrower" saves seed from the plants grown with the library seeds and then returns some of those seeds to the library for others to borrow. Over time, these seeds become adapted to our region’s particular climate and soil conditions. We need to keep our heirloom seeds viable because we have been losing hundreds of varieties of fruits and vegetables for a long time. The seed lending library will help us to maintain our biodiversity. Concord is growing a seed lending library that will be ready for 2013’s gardening season.
No longer taking submissions, thanks for your interest.
How to Enter
Submission Guidelines
1. The logo will be used online and in print. We are seeking a homegrown logo that will be unique to Concord. Flexibility is a key component, including the need to re-size easily and to look good in black and white, as well as in color. The final version of the logo will need to be suitable for high quality printing.
2. Be sure that your design is completely original and is not similar to existing logos or copyrighted images.
3. The logo should contain the words, "Concord Seed Lending Library" .
4. The limit on attachment sizes for our email is 15Mb. If your submission exceeds this size, even after compression, please send the images individually and note clearly in your emails that you are doing so.
5. The logo can be photographic or hand drawn.
We look forward to seeing all your creative submissions!
Judging and Selection of Winner
The winning design will be selected by the non-library employees of the Concord Seed Lending Library committee. The winner will be announced on November 12th, 2012.
The Prize
The winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to Pete and Jen's Backyard Birds. The winning logo and artist will also be featured in an article in the Concord Journal. The logo will appear on the Seed Lending Library's web site and will be used on the inserts for the seed packets.
Good luck and thanks!
