    You have by far the most awesome trade list I've seen!

    Thanks for your kind complement, tumblingtomatoes. My goal is to make looking through my lists a fun experience for GW folks.

    WOW! That is an awesome list soilentgreen. Soilent green was people. Interesting screen name. I don't have much from your lists but I do have alot of heirloom seeds still in packages from heirloomseeds. I have Provider beans, Blue Lake pole bean, sugar snap pea, pinto dry bean, navy dry bean, top crop bush bean, lt red kidney dry bean, contender bush bean, great northern bean (it actually acted like a pole bean), blue lake bush bean, dark red kidney dry bean, rattlesnake pole and purple pod pole beans. Also, my favorite that we have planted the last two years is a wonderful heirloom yellow orange tomato that is huge and meaty. The only thing wrong with it is I don't know the name. An old woman from church gave my hubby some seeds that her family had been planting for years. I have other stuff too but you were only asking for beans and peas. Do you see something you are interested in so we can do a trade?

    soilent_green is me. Soylent Green was people. Just a play on a term used in a campy sci-fi movie. (Although global food supplies are currently peaking...which kinda was what the movie was about.) hmm...

    cottageflowers, I'll send you an email.

    Hello. Are you interested in any of the following?

    Jade
    Provider
    Tendergreen
    Beurre de Rocquencourt
    Painted Lady
    Tiger's Eye
    Beer Friend*
    Tepary (from Seeds of Change)*

    Need to check the quantities on the ones with an asterisk. I'll also look up the names on the tepary beans, if interested. I didn't have great luck with them in terms of a good harvest so I've not given them much consideration.

    Thanks,
    Julie

    Tom, I guess I should say dahhh. That is a really good pun there. I haven't seen the movie since I was a kid-which was a long time ago. I am waiting patiently for your email. Your list is too drool over. Thanks, jenny.

    Tom, seeing you and your list is tempting, more than going thru Park seed catalog for me, smile.
    I've got some of your wants and would love colorful pole beans, hope to trade again when possible.
    thanks,

    I can trade Italian Flat Beans for peas. The Beans are tender and delicious.

    Thanks for the kind comment, sgtdraven. I already have your seed figured into my 2011 garden layouts. Now I just have to wait 6 months to plant ;-)

    WOW -- your list is fantastic in quality and presentation -- in fact, that leads to a confounding issue for me -- how does one use color/boldface/italics/change fonts/etc in the tradelist?

    Thanks so much. I stumbled upon "Black-Seeded Blue Lake" green beans a few years ago (Seeds of Change) and its far and away the best tasting green bean for fresh use & freezing I've tried. If you haven't grown it yet, and would like to trade, LMK.

    Thx!

    crnagora95 - I would still like to trade. I'll get back to you.

    bossmareny6a - You do not have an accessible email so I can not contact you. You need to email me.
