Also bring a chair for yourself. Bring a table to put your plants on if you wish...otherwise the ground is fine. Shade provided :) Everyone that brings a door prize will receive one.

You may also bring seeds to swap after the plant swap has concluded. Agenda: 1pm-2pm....arrive, check in and set up, check out plants to swap. 2pm-3:30pm....Round robin type swapping. Door prizes will be awarded during the swap. 3:30pm-4pm....pack up PLEASE POST OR EMAIL ME AT GARDENBABE@COMCAST.NET IF YOU ARE ABLE TO ATTEND, AND WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. We would like to get an idea how many people are coming. Everyone is invited. Its much easier to swap without kids, so leave them at home and enjoy an afternoon to yourself with other gardeners. :) Additional info: Its a good idea to pot up your plants about a month ahead of time so they are nice and healthy looking when the swap arrives. I look forward to meeting you all!

Hi Gardenpoppy, I live in Washington Twsp. too. I am going to contact my 2 garden friends and see if they will be able to come with me. I will let you know soon. I was hoping to come across another exchange before winter. Thanks for the post. Debbie

I think we're going to need at least 2 threads, including one for what people are bringing or looking for. If nobody objects, though, can we keep both on the 'discussion' side, and not bother with the 'exchange' side? There's really no advantage to using the exchanges for an event like this, it's meant for individuals to post plants they're going to share as individuals. Our posts about what we're planning to bring will be more of a discussion, like any other discussion, with the occasional summary that someone or another may spontaneously write up.
