MNF (revisited), New Beginnings Seed Swap
Years ago there was a group here called MNF, which stood for Making New Friends. Basically it was a group of people who came together to swap seeds and plants based on a monthly theme, and people were to free to participate in the group as long as they had a good history on the Garden Web. Those who did not fulfill their requirements for a monthly swap lost their participation privileges until they made good on the swap they still needed to fulfill. I'm thinking that since January will be the start of a new year, perhaps it is time to give the MNFers a new start as well.
Rules: 1) Anyone over 18 may sign up.
2) Sign-ups will be allowed until December 25th (that should be easy to remember, right?)
3) This swap will be for 5 packets of seeds, which will need to be mailed
out by January 5th.
4) To sign up, post that you'd like to participate here within this thread, and then
email your name, address, and garden web name to me at bumpandstella@aol.com.
5) On December 26th, I will post here who is mailing to who. You can then contact one another for your mailing address, or you can contact me since I'll also have that information.
And that's it! In the meantime, while we're waiting for December 26th to get here, feel free to introduce yourself and tell us all about your gardens, pets, and whatever, and also post pics if you wish. Let's all get to know one another, and who knows? You just might make some new lifelong friends!
-Dan

Comments (77)I am here tonight for a favor. I am in need of quick prayers for my 24 year old daughter. She went to the emergency room yesterday because she first started having stabbing pains in her chest then her left side began tingling and she was dizzy and had difficulty concentrating. She was tested for stroke and bloodclot and when they could not find anything, sent her home. Her pain went away but not the tingling. I took her to the chiropractor and she didn't do any work on her because just simply looking at her and her reactions to certain tests made the chiro ask me to take her back to the er. I took her to a different hospital and they have admitted her. I know someone asked if MS was in the family and I do have a cousin. They are doing an MRI tomorrow and after reading the symptoms tonight, realize that Elizabeth has several of them and they even mentioned some patients had pains described as stabbing which is how this started. I am scared for my daughter and pray that MS is not the problem. Please keep her in your prayers and I will keep you posted. Thanks Margo...See Morenew: mnf january 2010 swap - new beginnings
Comments (142)Hello to all! My box is almost ready. this is a fun project. I don't think I could send or receive any plants due to cold here, but maybe trade some in spring! I am trying to overwinter some geraniums in my indoor greenhouse ( in hubby's garage) I seem to be having fairly good luck. We too have 3 dogs, they are always in the greenhouse with me and the garden also. They eat as many veges as my husband and I, they ALWAYS get the first asparagus because they walk down the row and nip it off. Off for now, keep your chin up it is almost spring!!!!! D...See More
