UPDATE: Acres edible swap#4 update

19 years ago

Howdee

I wanted to let all that joined in on the fun of the acres edible swap#4. The deadline was today and the filled mailers will go out the 2ed of February. This years swap was fun as ever. I recieved over 1200 seed packs and mailers from 33 people. I contributed well over 120 seed packs as well as made certain things for all who joined. (It's a suprise). Several of the wish lists were very fun to try to fill. I look forward in hosting next years edible swap. There is already an Acres ALL tomato swap underway for those intersted see round robin forum. Please post here when you recieve your mailer from the Acres edible swap so I know it was returned to you unharmed. Also if you have any other question please email me direct

acres

May all your weeds be wild flowers and you have a bountiful edible garden this year.

hello well I hope the rest make it home by the end of the week. you know drippy I guess it is just a gift I have, I print/write a list of what people are looking for and just try to pop as many of their fav/wanted seeds in the envie, or things like it. but after the first 10 or 12 envies come in I get a little lost in the lists and just start looking and saying I think they will go ....here, maybe not a gift so much as dumb luck. LOL we are doing better my mother in law said she wanted us to have her new standard poodle puppy, she is a dream and the boys love going over to the house and playing with her. her name is pearl but I think I'm gonna rename her Ruby(Miss Ruby Star) or shasta (Miss Shasta Daisy). my oldest, Timmy is very excited to have her. she is 4 months old and very active, my mother in law just can't keep up with her, she and the boys will do a great job of running each other out. I would not have gotten a new dog so soon, but I rilly like her and could never afford to get a champion line pup by my self, I may evan show her. well obviously I have not been able to sleep of I would not be typing at 2am, rilly there is nothing else to do this time of night. 1. micyrey .....home 2. conniesc .... on the way home 3. drippy .... home 4. yotetrapper .... home 5. rosepedal .... home 6. cic70 .... home 7. pattygrow5 .... on the way home 9. markcase1964 .... on the way home chitownladyd .... home ramazz .... home lindaruzicka .... home ellenr .... home flwrs4ever .... home dorisl .... home poisondartfrog .... home jas-IL .... home divahethr .... home diggindirt49 .... on the way home julieMN .... home evonnestoryteller .... home jblanton08 .... home ibartoo .... on the way home sguanzon .... home irislover_nc .... home haymay rec .... on the way home threeshyacres .... home kamiljablo .... home patti1957 .... home clay lady .... on the way home beverlySC .... home debby1 .... home andreaz6wv .... home the hills .... on the way home zinaray .... home mayblooms .... home well I'm off to surf the other sites good night michelle

I was feeling a bit low today and was napping. I go outside to get the mail and I see this box tucked between my planter and the side of the house. Joan THANK YOU! You can be late any time. :o) Oh MY! She sent all kinds of goodies. Are you sure we are not long lost sister? She read me like a book. I cheered up right away and forgot I was not feeling well. I immediately went outside to plant the Collards and Brussel Sprouts seedlings she sent. I actually had Collards for lunch today. I have been late and did not put in seeds yet and when I ordered the collard seedlings, they were sold out. I craved Collards and bought them at Whole Foods. I cannot believe what they charge. Now I know why I have a garden. Also included were: A HUGE jar of Pickling Lime A HUGE bag of Mrs. Wages Bread & Butter Pickle Mix Another HUGE package of Spaghetti Sauce Tomato Mix A Package of Freezer Jam Fruit Pectin A beautiful door Hanger that reads~ May our Hearts be filled with Thanksgiving Recipe Cards w/ Pen Memo Pad A Calendar w/ Kittens- You must have seen my email address 2 Packages of Almond Roca- It is my FAV, I swear WOW! She sent her recipes for Pickled Green Beans, Pickled Beets, Chow Chow and Pickled Hot Peppers She sent Bush Green Beans, Cayenne Peppers, Mammoth Table Queen Royal Acorn, Nantes Carrots, Large Red Cherry Tomatoes, Alaska Peas, Sweet Basil, Detroit Dark Red Beets, Giant Noble Spinach~ I have been planting Spinach and ran out, how Joan knew, I have no clue and Nebraska Wedding Tomatoes were on my WISH LIST. Thank you so much Joan! It was a PLEASURE. Nancy
