Educational session at the Swap-a-Que

15 years ago

As much as I like talking to an audience, I'm looking for a volunteer to give an educational session at the upcoming Swap-a-Que. 30 minutes, 45 tops, unless you really can hold the audience after lunch.

Any takers? Topics???

If no one steps forward, I'll come up with something, but I'd rather just hang with you guys this time around.

Ricky,

When is the swap? If my schedule permits, I could do a talk. Is there a subject you want to hear about? Maybe other attendees could make suggestions.

Kristi I will make room thanks! What else do you want? Sillybugs I do have the crinium and will bring you one as well as a couple crown of thorns cuttings. I will be bringing a few different hedychiums or butterfly gingers. Ladygreensleves I would like to trade for the amazon I have one but have a great spot for another. Don't need the tall porterweed but if you have the native small one I will take some.

Thanks Ricky, what about special needs? Like me, I will need help unloading and loading. I don't use a walker or wheelchair but do have a cane, just for security. Don't worry, I won't poke holes in your yard, I ain't that heavy, lol! Since my Cliff is not coming, I guess I am asking for anyone who would like to volunteer to help me unload and park my car for me. Sheesh I am such a wimp! Kat is granting me space under her tent. I am planning to come early and leave early so as not to be away from Dennis too long. Being there early, I will gladly help you and Karen set up tables and eating areas etc. Please ask me, I like to DO STUFF! I don't know if there are others with special needs. Thought I'd speak up and perhaps others might chime in. So looking forward to this semi annual PIG OUT! I still cannot believe there are OVER 70 people! WOW!

Ricky/Karen and all, I thoroughly enjoyed the swap and continue to enjoy it everyday as I go out and water my new plants. I would someday like to host a swap here. I hosted a couple of Garden Web swaps while living in CT, even though, there we had it a State Park. I don't know why, but the people up there thought it was weird that I would have it at my house and thought that no one would come (Northerners!) And I have to say, Bihai, I had the same experience as you, most swappers did not grow Tropicals in CT. I had a greenhouse and being from Florida, kept my orchids and tropicals going all winter. I did meet one person who also enjoyed tropicals and had a pond so we sort of started our own private swaps. I have never volunteered to have a swap because I did not want to interfere with Ricky's swaps. But, anyway, if anyone is interested, I would be willing to have one in Jupiter. We live in the Farms where all the lots are at least 1.25 acres, so I have lots of room and lots of room for parking. The patio out back by the pool is large enough for a swap and we have a covered bamboo pavillion where we could set up food, drinks, etc. And Jupiter might be a little closer for folks farther north. Something to think about, Cherie

Jerry - Sunday, October 19th. There's a thread on the Exchanges page with a link to request an invite. I'd send you one from the e-mail link here at GW, but you can't attach a file.

I'd love to have you talk, the question is - what's the subject? What would you feel most comfortable talking about? We've had a lecture on air layers and grafting and last Spring I did one on landscaping principles. What's your pleasure?

You mean you don't want to hear my 45 minute rant on Lake Okeechobee????? Seriously????

(Pole dance, indeed! I'm still trying to get the jello out of my ears from our last debacle, Cindee.)

LOL!!!! I am so looking forward to the Swap. Can't wait to meet you guys (both genders included). Should I add jello to my list of things to bring?

Here's a few newbie requests, Jerry: Composting 101, How to Start Cheap and Get Rich Fertile Soil ... "The Art and Science of Pruning" ... "How to Feed Our Fine Feathered Friends without Starting a Squirrel/Rodent Frestival".

Cindea, my dear, unfortunately I don't have rhythm! You and Kristi will need to start at a level lower than 101 for me. I'll be sure to check out behind the poolcage.

LOL Tony!
