You guys are a little nuts with the themed seed swaps? LOL. Glad you have a hobby but...... Next year I'll have a bunch of seeds to trade. I don't know about the themed trading.
You do know
it's more than just seeds, swaps and themes,lol. some of us d-mail every day on a regular basis ya all miss the good stuff on the open forums,rotfl. i can't wait for you to join us next year, you'll love it too and then know what it's all about! i sure hope it is sooner :-)
we had loads of fun, met new traders, got lots of pretties, yummies, surprises and made new lifetime friends so even though we get crazy about it i sure wouldn't trade it for the world i luv my garden gals!!!
my favorite part is the new things i get i share with my 5 kid's especially my 3 year old daughter and my 4 year old blind son who are my garden buddies and help me everyday to plant something new, that in it's self is priceless to teach and learn and enjoy with them.
yes, i'll be the first to admit i'm a seed junkie and a plantaholic i need help, rotfl. oh and i truelly can't thank my girls and my traders here enough for all your kindness and beautiful things i have recieved, thank you all!!!

I can hardly wait until I have lots of seeds to trade. Currently, I have a red lion amaryllis with seeds ripening, and I will be keeping my eyes open and collecting seeds all season. themes seem fun to me :-)

This is my first year of doing the trading and I've had a blast. Everyone is great and the hostesses are the best. I didn't have much seed to start with but now I have lots. We just moved here in August and I had nothing but a few plants that I brought with me. Now I have loads of seedlings to put out. My vege garden is going to be the best one I've ever had.
My grand daughter and I even got a small trade thing going and she now has beautiful plants that she will be growing. We were going to start her garden this weekend but the weather will turn bad and cold on us, so it will have to wait. She is so disappointed (me too).
Try to get in on a small swap at first, you'll find everyone is very generous and so gracious. I am on a couple of other seed swap sites and this is the best one as far as I'm concerned. I can't go a day without getting on and talking to someone about something. I think I've actually learned a few things in here too. lol. Which is really hard to believe.
Have a good day and a great time gardening.
