Kris and I could possibly make one this year yet - depends on date. Looks like August 28 or Sept 18 works best for us. Or just about any Sunday. Could possibly make it over Labor Day weekend too.

What is the twist to the round Robin? Something we haven't done before? Curious...

I'm watching Susie to see what you put together.

SO EVERYONE OK WITH A SEPT 18th SWAP ????? If so raise your hands this week or I Will have to just cancle this till NEXT SPRING .

SO SPEAK UP PLEASE SO I CAN GET THIS PLANNED >

Sand Lake, MI

I have to say I am not sure if I can make it now. Co worker broke a leg and I am now working many, many hours. Not sure I would have time to get many plants dug up. Would have to show up with what is already in pots. If you decide to go ahead with the fall swap, I will reevaluate my schedule closer to the date. Sorry about being wishy washy.

Well To Be HONEST I'm Not Forsure I can do this One I Have had a few Health Issues & I Have many
Other Boxes to get out So

I THINK I WILL CANCLE THIS FALL SWAP & We CAN STOCK UP FOR THE SPRING SWAP.
HAPPY GARDENING TO ALL

WOULD THERE BE ANY OF YOU THAT MIGHT LIKE TO JUST BRING LIKE 10-15 PLANTS
A GARDEN GIFT & MAYBE JUST A SNACK OF SORTS .
THIS WOULD BE MORE LESS JUST A FEW OF US GETTING TOGETHER .

Rather then trying to get a huge one going for this fall I would like to have just a small exchange
with just our regular DG Group What do you say anyone else up to it .

we can exchange our plants between us NO Trailer Load for me this time , Shell can you get in touch with Linda & Lisa .
we can meet at the part about 11 am & Go as long as we want . they say chance of rain so sure it will not .
rain on our day . I thought if there is about 10 of us we can each have a plant from each other :)

let me know here by friday the latest .
thank you
