NEW: Easter Seed Swap

21 years ago

We had such a wonderful success with the last seed swap, I thought we'd try it again. For this I would like to have the seeds mailed to me by March 10th, so I can get them back out for delivery by Easter.

Rules for the Swap

1) Flowers only for this one

2) Send as many packs as you like, an equal number will be returned to you.

3) Mail them so I receive them by March 10th

4) Use a bubble mailer that I can reuse to send you your seeds.

5) Please no more than 3 of one variety of seed

6) Include enough seeds per pack to be considered a good trade.

7) Include as much information as you can on the seed envelope.

8) Include enough postage to return the envelope to you.

9) Include a self addressed label

  1. Include a note with the number of packs you sent, and a wish list. (No guarantees, but I will try to get everyone a few off their list)

I think that covers everything. E-mail me if you have any questions.

    Rosemeade,
    I have no way to contact you. Even through GW on your page, there is no link to send you an e-mail. Please e-mail me (dsp605@aol.com), and I will send you the information.

    Just an idea if everyone would have wants on their want lists I was checking to get some ideas what to send so everyone could get some wants but half of the people have no want lists. Patty

  • 21 years ago

    That's a great idea Patty. If anybody doesn't have a trade list posted for wants then please post some here. Dawn

  • 21 years ago

    Wonderful idea!! I plan on using seeds that I have on my trade list to try to match up some wants on the lists when I get them. If anyone wants to post what they are looking for here, too, maybe even more wants could be matched up!!

    Vic01
    patrob
    ellieandethansmom
    pearidgegirl

    Thanks to all that have shipped their seeds promptly. It looks like we have a really nice assortment here, I'm sure everyone will be happy with what they get. If anyone still has to get their seeds out, that's fine, please let me know, though. By the middle of next week, I'd like to sit down and start stuffing envelopes so I can get them in the mail by Mar 21st.

    Received seeds from Evan_OH.

    If there is anyone that recently sent, or still plans to send their seeds, please let me know. I am hoping to start the sorting and repacking of seed envelopes this weekend, and it would help to know if there are anymore on their way.

  • 21 years ago

    Momcat,
    I received the seeds today and I am very happy with what I received. Thank you very much for such a wonderful swap.Thanks Kayems

  • 21 years ago

    Sorry I've been absent so much lately. So much going on at home and work, I haven't had much time to relax and play on the computer. Everyone's seeds were mailed out on Monday, so hopefully they will be arriving within the the next few days. I tried to match up a few from everyone's wish lists if at all possible. There was a wonderful assortment of seeds to go through, I hope you will all be happy. I'm sorry if the Easter cards were missing from some. My daughter was helping close up the envelopes and I found several of the cards left over!
    This was fun, we'll have to do it again a little later in the year!!

    Thanks again,
    Mary

    I'm so glad everyone seems to be happy with the seeds they received. I did my best to match up as many wants as possible. I really enjoyed hosting this, and you all made it so easy for me. We'll have to do this again, maybe early in the fall.
    Happy Gardening,
    Deb
