Who's behind this

Hi, I'm Geet.

Books are expensive. Parents are busy, and it's hard to know what will really stick. Kids outgrow books quickly and before long, a whole shelf is gathering dust.

I started a small book exchange with my local mums and it just grew from there. I decided to spread the love wider. The Fern Library is how I'm doing it. Pre-loved books finding new readers, one box at a time.
