NEW: May Seed Swap all will get at least 10 Bonus Packs

17 years ago

Hi Everyone,

I haven't hosted a swap this month so I got bored and planned this one.

Deadline for joining will be May 18th . Seeds must be sent in by May 25th. They will be returned to you no later than June 2nd.

I've learned a few things from the first swap so here are a few guidelines:

Each pack of seeds should have at least a dozen seeds in it.

Please do not send more than 2 of the same kind of seeds unless they are for sharing as bonus packs. The 3rd pack of the same kind of seeds will be considered an extra and offered as a bonus. Example, If you send in 3 packs of Black Hollyhocks the first two will count as your trade packs and the third pack will be offered as a bonus to another swapper.

You will get back as many packs as you send in. PLUS AT LEAST 10 BONUS PACKS.

I will be adding at least 10 packs of extra seeds for each swapper.

Send as many packs as you want and if you have extras I will be happy to divide up the packs and make even more extras to share with everyone. I have tons of plastic seed bags and labels.

Please send your seeds in bubble envelopes and include a return address label and sufficient postage for sending these back to you. Please Do not SEND ME MONEY FOR POSTAGE.

If this sounds like something you might like to join in on please sign up and I'll email you with the mailing information.

Thanks Kelly

It is coming from Canada and I am hoping that is why it is taking so long, and that the USPS didn't lose it out there somewhere! I am hoping it will be here by Saturday,so she can have her seeds before summer!:) Have a great day all of you! :)

Hello ladies and...too bad no gents here. I don't remember. DID we ever have any gentlemen sign up for our bigger group? Anyway...I DO DIgress, eh? UPDATE: Carrie Ann, I received your package today. Thank you for the yummy smelling vanilla bean simmering waffle bar. I like the smell of vanilla VERY much. Thank you also for the very pretty wind chimes. Pink with silver etching--just beautiful. I didn't put them out today after school, though, as the wind was reeealy blowing, and I was afraid something would happen to them. I will see what tomorrow holds. I googled the brodiaea Queen Fabiola bulbs that you sent. I was really clueless.(what's new sometimes) They look like my favorite color of blue!!! THANK you! I esPECially loved your letter. So newsy and sweet. Plus a nice selection of seeds to divide between our friends. Beth, your seeds are here, too, along with a number of fulfilled wishes. I want to thank you for the darling little soft brown puppy with the dark brown ears and wearing BUNNY EARS! It is so darn cute! Poor thing is trying to lug around this clear carrot filled with jelly bean eggs. Patty, I forgot to thank you for the seeds that you sent to me-tall green nicotiana and milk chocolate foxglove. I am absolutely THRILLED!!! As I have said to the rest of you, I think you will also be happy when you see what seeds you will be getting, too. Since this thread is so close to 100, I believe I will be starting back at 1 sometime this evening. I need to compose a new intro. then I will post a list of who is in the seed swap along with whose seeds have arrived here and who has yet to send. See you elsewhere! Mary Ellen/Mellen

I got a nice package today from Tina. It had some houseplant starts and some bulbs, which I hopefully will plant on Sunday as it is supposed to be nice, although snow tonight! Yuck :0 There were some nice goodies in ther for my house, candle and some fabulous incense which I am burning right now! A bulb hole digger, and some seeds, baggies and plant markers too! And a magazine for my downtime when feeding my baby, yipee :) Thanks Tina, no worries about taking longer, stuff happens, and I loved my package! Hope things are better for your family, loss of a loved one is all consuming, and I hope you are feeling better. Steph

Hi Kelly,

I didn't get any mail. =( Guess it didn't go through. Maybe if you send it straight to zoegirl2006@aol.com , instead of going through GW, maybe it will work.

Also,

Hi Kelly, I mailed yesterday. I'm trying to get EVERYTHING wrapped up. I am "so ready" to move but am on call this weekend then have three more days to work.
I know I'll miss it here when winter gets close but for now that garden in MD keeps calling me louder and louder.
Have fun swapping. My new seeds will be waiting to greet me when I arrive in MD. Yeahoo!!!
