Hello,

I would love to be part of this, you have email.

We now have 38 folks in the seed swap/trade. I have already started to receive some envelopes of seeds.

For those that haven't already mailed their envelope, could you please include your Garden Web name so that I can keep track of who sent their seeds.

Just a reminder that I should receive the seeds by Sept. 22/06. It is up to you to remember to send them to me, I don't have time to email everyone individually. Updates will be posted here and at the website I set up.

*****After the Labour Day weekend, (September 4) I will NOT be accepting any more people into this swap.*****

Thanks for understanding

I am hoping to be included in this. Hopefully since it is still labour day as I send this off I have made the deadline. If not - my loss

Thanks Gilly

I've had some messages from folks that joined the swap saying that they didn't receive any info from me. I did have a couple of emails returned saying they couldn't be delivered so they were resent. If you use Hotmail you should check in your junk mail folder as my email could of been put in there. But if for some reason you did not receive my mailing address please let me know.

I am NOT accepting any more people into this swap.
I need to receive the seeds by Sept. 22 if you wish to be included in the swap. Any seeds received after that date will be returned to you in the SASE. Thanks for understanding.

The seed swap envelopes are arriving almost daily now. The mail carrier must wonder whay is going on at my house.

Please check the link below to see if your envelope has been received.

Thanks to those that are being very generous and including some extra packets to distribute.

I hoping that everyone will have their seeds in the mail to me by this weekend. Remember I want to have them by Sept. 22 so that I can do up the envelopes and get them back in the mail.
Check the seed swap page to see if yours have been received yet.

Hello
Just joined and I think this is a great idea, are you going to have another exchange say in the Spring. I would be very interested.
Thanks
Shirls Garden

sbnelson@can.rogers.com

Hi ShirlsGarden - yes I am sure I will do another swap later on. But there is another member who is organizing a different swap and you might want to join that one.

There is just a few days left for your seeds to arrive at my house. I really appreciate it that some folks have emailed me and said they have put them in the mail.

Remember it is up to you to mail the seeds to me. I won't be sending any individual emails.

Please continue to check the seed swap page I set up.

Hi,
please count me in!
Fluffy

Hi getfluffy - sorry but I didn't accept any new names in this swap after the Labour Day weekend. It was mentioned a few messages ahead of this one. This swap is nearing completion, as all seeds are due to me by Sept. 22. I will be organizing another one in a month or so. There is also another swap going on here at the Canadian Garden Exchange.
Thanks for understanding.

Hi Linda
Just wanted to let you know that the seeds for the swap went out in the mail yeaturday - hopefully they make the deadline. LOL I will keep checking your site for updates.

Thank you, can't wait to see what we all get.
Tina

Well folks the deadline for me to receive the seeds is here. I have updated the seed swap page. There are 10 participants that have not sent the seeds, 2 participants tell me the seeds are in the mail. I did receive 3 lots of seeds but can't mark beside your Garden Web name as it wasn't included. I will begin to sort the seeds at the beginning of the week.

Thanks to all the participants.

Here is a link that might be useful: Seed Swap

I guess I forgot to mention that the seeds were mailed Monday.

The deadline has come and gone. I waited an extra day and received 3 lots of seeds today. I have one lot of seeds with a real name, and a Garden Web name that said they mailed the seeds. I hoping that these 2 names connect and all the seeds have arrived.

I have started the process of re-labelling the envelopes and adding the postage and I am starting to share out the seeds. I know that some of you requested specific seeds to be sent back, but due to the huge numbers of seeds it will be impossible for me to go through them all and look for specific ones.  I just don't have that amount of time.Â

I have not heard from 6 participants. As originally mentioned in the directions, seeds received after the deadline will be sent back to you in your SASE. I'm assuming since none of you contacted me you decided not to participate, which is absolutely fine.

Thanks to everyone that got their seeds out. Thanks for the extra seeds for sharing. Other gardeners will benefit from these.

Here is a link that might be useful: Seed Swap

The seeds are all shared out and the envelopes are ready to go back into the mail on Wed. Sept. 27/06

There were 5 people I never heard from. If by any chance the seeds arrive in the next few days they will be returned as orginally stated in the first instructions.

Thanks to everyone that participated. I really hope you will enjoy the selection of seeds you get back.

I'm looking forward to meeting you all again in another seed swap.

I guess I meant Canada Post.
