Am I a newbie?

Mmmm, I don't think so but if you will not be bored by common everyday seeds you could play too.
I just remember being a newbie and thinking "I don't have anything anyone would want". It took a while to get brave enough to get into the group swaps but I have loved it ever since. I'm hoping to help new people catch the bug. LOL

you guys make me roll with laughter...!!!
I do so much miss the RR's i was in! making new friends, and listening to Carol "growl" LOL!!...I wanna join a robin, maybe i will host one..(too scared)
But right now i am under the weather

Just wanted to say "Hi" and how much i enjoy all of you, and how you always make me smile :)
Trish
Oh yeah...heres a ~*BUMP*~ for ya

Hey Trish Sorry to hear you are not feeling up to par. Seems that this has been an extra tough winter for many of us. Curl up witha good book (Or seed catalogs) and some nice tea and relax. Hope you are on the mend soon.
Hurry back BB

Beth,
I would love to participate. I've read your guidelines but still have a couple of questions.

Are veggies O.K.? Or is this a flower only swap?

Do I need to specify what I would like in return?
("Flowers", Flowers & Vegetables", "Vegetables")

If I can play with the girls today please send me an address and I will pack up some seeds.

Thanks,
"MikeyJoe"

Hi Beth
So sweet of you to do this swap for the newbies!! Please let me know if you need any more seeds for the swap as I would be glad to send you some for the newbies and Carol too!! LOL
I hope you doing well. How about the dog races??

Hi MickeyJoe, veggie seeds would be fine too. I don't limit the type of seeds that people can send though I do admit to destroying any seeds that come for trumpet vine. It is number two on my personal list of noxious weeds. I just replace them with another type of seed.
Veggies will be fine and, it is always a good idea to include some ideas of what you prefer so the hostess has some guidelines. In the end though, what you get back depends on what other people send in.
Jan, if you want to send some surplus seeds to be given as bonus packs... that would be very nice and much appreciated. I have several types but with seeds "More is always better"
Dog races are picking up nicely. We got a foot of new snow over the weekend and temps have finally gotten back below ZERO. Much Better! There were several short(under 20 miles) races this weekend in this area. Just a shame the weather was so crummy for the Yukon Quest and the Tesoro Iron Dog. Well weather is just one of those things.

Hi Beth,

Newbie here, I live in Los Angeles and am working to be an arborist. I just joined GW the other week and I already having a great time meeting everyone. I would love to join your round robin, please email me your address and I will send my seeds.
Thanks!!!!

Danielle

I would love to join also - please send me the address so I can send some seeds.

Hi Firegurl Danielle and ltarm welcome to the seed swap and thanks for joining. I'll be sending you my address tonight or tomorrow. I'll be looking foreward to getting your seeds for the swap.
If you have questions, please feel free to ask. If I can't answer... there will be someone else around who can. This is a nice friendly forum. Hope this swap leads to many more for you both.

Thank you Beth! I am excited...:) Firegurl

Hi
Just wanted to post I sent some extra seeds out today!!
Have fun with the seed swap girls!! (and guys)

Hi,
I am a newbie and interested in this round robin. Please let me know where I should send the seeds, can they be anything or do they have to be "easy to grow"? any info will help , thanks angie

Hi Angie, easy to grow is relative but I'd avoid anything that is real fussy or that takes refrigeration or other pre-treatment to germinate. I know lots of people are newbies to GW but old hands at gardening. I just want everyone to have a good shot at good luck with the seeds from this swap. Hope that works OK for you too.
Jan thanks for the bonus seeds. Looks like there will be a good batch of bonus seeds for this swap. That is always nice.

Just Curious!?!?
CAROL are you in on this one? LOL!!

Yep this is me today, (HAD to work yesterday) STILL under the weather :(
and totally bored! LOL!
Trish

If there's still time,I'm in!!I already have your addy Beth!!

Thanks Wendy, Nice to have you joining up with the gang here.
Trish I work nights and I thought everyone looked like that in the daytime until I started seeing the fairies swinging on the moon in some of last month's posts. (The one where Carol said "girl go get your clothes on") LOL Maybe it is always summer in the fairy garden.
Angie, do you need my address? Can't remember if I sent it or not,so, probably not.
Just a couple days left to sign up and get seeds mailed out. Anybody else want to get in?

Thanks Jan, for the seeds you sent in. I'll add to the bonus pile so all the newbies who participate get some real nice goodies. Thanks again for helping to make the newbies welcome.

I just saw the last call and hope to get in...I really over-bought and would like to get some things I don't have.

Seeds arrived from Firegirl, Wenders and MickeyJoe. All were nicely packed and there was a very nice variety for what is supposed to be a newbie swap. A few duplicates but not as many as I was thinking there might be.
This is looking good.

Seeds arrived yesterday fron MamaKizu. A nice big fat package from Mama. Thanks a bunch I'm sure the other wappers will enjoy these.
Itarm, please send me and email with your Real name and GW name so I can match you up with the right mailing address. Thanks. Beth

Seeds arrived in today's mail from Itarm all nicely labled and identified. Thanks Lynn and thanks for the really terrific smelling candle. Obviously the unidentified seeds were not yours. Well, maybe they were from an old swap and are just late getting here.
I'll start tomorrow to sort seeds and set up the trades to be mailed back on Saturday.
Thanks for the prompt mailing everyone, Good Job.

The seeds were sorted and mailed back yesterday. Thanks to all who participated. Please post when your seeds arrive.
Thanks, BB

Has anyone gotten their seeds yet? I mailed them last Friday at the Post Office. Just beginning to wonder.
