THIS IS
HOW IT WORKS: NO SALES, Only exchanges and freebies, please. Tailgating
Encouraged. Bring your plants from Propagation; grown from seeds, shovel
pruned, reseeded plants, or extras from a large nursery purchase. Size doesn’t
matter. The format for the trade is like a tailgate party. Traders exchange
expert gardening information as well as plant materials. In two hours all the
deals are sealed. We have plenty of parking.
Label your plants with botanical and common names, color, height, width,
etc. if possible. Pictures are also great.

FREE
STUFF: The last half hour (11:30–12:00) you MAY be able to pick up some
free plants from gardeners that are willing to give it away. Many gardeners
generously share plants from the abundance of their gardens. This is an
excellent way to begin your garden and an excellent way to thin out that giant
patch of Shasta Daisies, etc.

WHAT IF
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO TRADE: Cookies and chocolate work like money at the Plant
Swap!

Rain or shine, gardeners gather to share and
exchange

plants and knowledge with all.
