So far so good. Pretty much done with most of the wishlists. I have 3 people who haven't sent me one.

Who is D. Shelman from AR?

Alrighty, all the sorting has been done. I should be mailing them off tomorrow.

*does the happy dance*

Congratulations Daniel. Thanks for stepping up and getting this done this year.

And kchd, Daniel's (AKA Seed Santa) cute helper elf! Elf

Okay most of the packages have been mailed. A happy new year present for all:)

I think everyone should be pleased. Most got at least 75% of there wishlist fulfilled. With lots of extras as well. We really didn't have many extras so it is rare that someone will get more then 2 of the same packet.

Daniel - Thanks for taking on this task. I know it couldn't have been easy. Hopefully I sent enough for postage, but I think I have my return address on there so it should all fall on me if there's not enough.

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

I sent everything first class with tracking so pretty much 2.54 per person. Shouldn't be any postage problems.

Thanks Daniel for organizing this. It's a herculean task for sure. If there was any leftover postage (usually is) take yourself to the store of your choice and purchase a nice beverage on us :D

Thanks for putting this together, even during the busiest time of the year!

Oh geez, totally missed everything for the week because I was with family. I'm D. Shelman from AR. Sorry!

Thanks Daniel and Merry Christmas . I got my packagw today. I was so excited to get all those wonderful varieties. Thank you so much!

I received my package today. Thank you so much, Daniel. I thought you did an excellent job! And thank you Katie for helping!

Btw, don't forget to leave a good review for Daniel here. He got a lot of grief for being a newbie, so we want to make sure people see good reviews for the next time he hosts!

You got yours in California already? That is some quick shipping.

Thanks Erica, I couldn't have done it without the guidance of KCHD and the patience and help sorting from my wife.

Thank you so much Daniel!!!

I received a package from you today. This is wonderful Christmas present! I am so excited to try to grow different varieties of peppers.

Olga:)

Oh my goodness and thank you so much. As a newbie here I sorta felt like a slime even asking to be in the swap. I had hoped that maybe I would get a packet or two of something new but since I was a newbie I didn't really count on anything. Well the package arrived today and my cheeks hurt from smiling. Don't know who is cooking and cleaning tonight but I am going to be spending time with my seeds! So many that I have never heard of and can't wait to look them up and try them in the garden!! Thank you Daniel (I left a good review like Erica said) and for everyone that shared so many wonderful seeds that I got to be a part of this also. I will have seeds to share next year!

I as well received my package today. Thanks Daniel and everyone.

Daniel is it to late to join, guess I would be a newbie, but been growing peppers for years and years, but never kept tract of what the actual name of my seeds were over the years. Love to join and get organized. Over the years I planted, harvested, and saved seeds based on personal likes. Would love to get some new seeds and be a contributor in the future. Never have joined a group like this, just found this site today. What a grand adventure you are providing Daniel. Cheers (please advise) Donald

I received my seed package today as well. All I can say is wow! That's a lot of seeds! I know this year wasn't supposed to be as big as last year but I received more seeds this year than last. Dan did a great job and to all of the contributors you guys did great too! I thought I had my grow list for 2016 all laid out. But now I'm going to have to rethink it all over again.

Received my seeds today. Great selection, thank you Daniel for all your hard work. Can't wait to start planting.

My seeds came today and I am so overwhelmed! So many varieties and so many seeds from such generous gardeners - and Dan, you did an awesome job. I'm just blown away by your dedication and hard work!

Thanks again - a million times. I will be thinking of all you gardeners who shared your seeds all throughout the pepper growing season.

Susie

Daniel, received my seeds today, thanks for the great selection and especially the seeds on my wishlist. And thanks for stepping up and hosting this swap just when it seemed that the annual pepper swap would not happen! The spreadsheet had over 300 variety entries, good work swappers!

I received my package today and all I can say is WOW!!!! What a great variety of seeds. Daniel you did an absolute AWESOME job! Thank you SO much and thanks everyone for all the different varieties.

I hope if you do another swap I'm able to join. Thanks again! Di

I got my packet--holy cow, enough seeds to plant an area the size of my neighborhood.

Thanks Daniel & Ksvd for putting this together. Great job!

Now, I hope people post more about how their plants do this year, I'm curious to see some of these types in action.

Can't wait to see what I received!

Is anyone still interested in seed trading? I wasn't aware of the swap. I lost my seed collection in a flood this summer, but friends are allowing me to use their extra seeds for swapping. There's 200+ tomato varieties and 40+ pepper varieties available to trade. I'm doing growouts for some folks in order to get some of the seed, but I still have some room for that if someone was interested, also. Any help is much appreciated!!! THANK YOU!!!

Grateful, pm me your address and I'll send you a nice package of goodies, no swap necessary

Daniel, did my envie ever pop up? If not, Im assuming it got lost in all the holiday mail traffic.

I might be interested if you have tomatoes or peppers I don't have. Maybe you could send me a list and we could see if I have something you would like.

Daniel - I was away for a few days and when I got home my seeds were in the mailbox. Many thanks to you & Katie for stepping up to the plate when nobody else wanted to take it on. Excellent job!

ps: I got many more seed than I can use, so if anyone else is shorted or missing something they wanted, I certainly can share.

I received my pepper seed pack in the mail yesterday! Thank you!! Lots of variety and I can wait to get started planting. C'mon springtime!!

Mine came yesterday too. Thank you to everyone who contributed and to our host!

Daniel you did and awesome job.Kudos to you and your wife.The seed package was well received and thanks to all who shared.

I wasn't able to get in on the seed swap, but I wanted thank Daniel for making it a successful event. KUDOS!!!

Question: The California Golden...are those hot? are they golden bell peppers?

Daimond - That's a sweet pepper. Here's Burpee's description. Calif Golden

Fantastic, thank you!

My seeds arrived today! Thanks so much to everyone involved in the swap!

I got my seeds!! I'm so excited!! Thank you so much for hosting this swap!

Lee should be the last one to get his seeds. If anyone hasn't gotten by now please let me know.

To whoever put the alma paprika and Santa Fe grande seeds into the holiday swap, thank you!! They are positively prolific so far and I'm definitely going to enjoy this year's harvest. Would love to see photos of what others planted from the seed swap as well!

I don't remember if anyone else sent in Alma Paprika, but I sent in enough packs for every participant.

Here's a few photos of my peppers. Some are over-wintered. Too many to name.

I think I also sent in Alma paprika???

C'mon now, John. You can't comment without posting a pepper pic. ;)

Sent lots of santa fe, I loved them last year.

Just now getting my plants out! Will post pictures when they get a tad larger!!
