Since I am home most of the time I would like to host a swap to chase away the winter blahs. Will not guarantee anything as this is my first one but will give it my best shot. How many out there would be interested in swapping anything thatr grows seeds???
Got the Winter Blahs Swap
What do you have in mind for your trades?
Honibee I have in mind a regular swap of any seeds. Folks can send in up to 30 packs of any seed and get back the same amount from the seeds folks send in. Would ask all seeds be in my hands by February 1st and would remail back that week to all participating. Requests I would try to fill from the pot of seeds but couldnt guaranttee as it would depend of course on what is recieved.Mailing should be done in Bubble envelopes and the same amount of postage inside that it takes to mail the package to me . Also a address label and a list of things sent and things wanted would be helpful.Extras welcome and would be sent out to new members who request extras.Any tips or suggestions welcome. Also need to clearly mark SWAP on outside of envelope

Me too, thanks!
Me too!

hey i would like to do that. i dont have too much to offer-- but i guess that would only be to my disadvantage, huh! i'll get on that this week.
Hi All Please come join us
ok, since ive never done this before, i have a dumb question. is it ok for me to send a couple packs of the same kind of seed, since you'll just be splitting them up to different people anyhow?
Allowing 2 packs of the same kind of seed Thanks for joining us-hope more folks will also
ok, well i guess you can just send me back 1 pack of the stuff i sent 3 of. or you can keep it- i have so much it doesnt matter to me. i sent it out today.
Sending 10 packs tomorrow...hope I did OK.
art n garden Dont worry Well do all right Thanks for taking part in this=we still need some more folks to join
Bump
I am in also Marclay if it isn't to late??????? Will send out Monday! Tracy
Not too late Tracy Still plenty of time for anyone to join us Shirley
Sheran your seeds went out today. I had to send the padded envelope full of seeds to the post office with a friend so I didn't get to see how much it cost to send it to you so I included $2.00 in with the seeds for the postage. I hope this was okay with you. Really looking forward to the suprise seeds. Thanks and it has been a ball, Tracy
I would love to do this but I live in Ireland and I don't think the post will reach you by the date you requested. Any suggestions?
Sue
Sue send along your package and I willsend you one back-dont worry about the date. I have thought about extending this one week if noone minds because of the ice and snow storms in the northeast grounding those of us who live here, I knbow I havent been able to get to the PO and if noone here minds lets expand this to Feb 8th with return mailing by the 16th. Shirley Glad to have you join us
Many thanks Marclay - I'm going to have a rummage.
Sue
extra week sounds good, didn;t get them out yet...maybe tomorrow!
doesnt matter to me, more people means lots of different seeds :)
sent 12 packs this morning!
Jennie
One more week is fine with me also! It is your call Sheran, thanks Tracy
Sent 14 packs today
Sue
