Ack, don't throw out those seeds you've decided you won't be using: I’d love to do some  seed trading!  (I know, I know, I’m being an enabler...)

I hope I'm doing this right... Below is a list of what I have to offer, followed by a list of what I’m most interested in. Most of these are from 2015 or 2016. My seeds are stored at about 55-60*F at about 50% humidity. Some of these I only have enough to share one sample worth (generally speaking, enough to do a few squares, except beans cause the seeds are harder to ship safely due to their size), others I can do several. Pretty sure I can only trade with others in the US, legally/practically speaking (my apologies international friends!)
I plan on sending seeds in bubble mailers, see:
https://squarefoot.forumotion.com/t5136-a-couple-precautions-to-take-when-sending-seeds

Reusing the mailer I send to you, to trade seeds back to me would be great! It costs more than an envelope, so feel free to pick a few varieties to make it worthwhile. 

   *=older for the seed type, or poorly stored (before I got them, of course)
    @ - will be purchasing, can share after order comes in
 except for the arugulas, chrysanthemum, and salad burnet, there is some chance that the home-saved seeds could have crossed with related varieties

Interested in:
This is NOT an only-these list. Feel free to suggest other plants/varieties! Generally speaking: I like Polish heirlooms and obscure/forgotten species (like skirret.)  I don’t like swiss chard, pattypans, spaghetti squash, or snap peas (I’ll eat them if served to me, but I don’t want to grow them.) I don’t have room for corn even though there are some really neat varieties out there. I’m renting, so I don’t want to grow perennial vegetables like rhubarb or asparagus. I don’t want more carrot seeds until I’ve figured out how to grow them.  Unless you really think they have very low germination, older seeds are fine.

Oh, Beetles, you KNOW I love me some seed swaps! Wink

Off the list of seeds you're offering, I love to try the Mache, Tomatillo, Radish, and @Isis Tomato.

Of your wish list I can offer NZ Spinach (Tetragonia), Tansey (Tanacetum Vulgare), and the following Basils: Asian (Kapoor Tulsi OG), Greek Miniature, Citrus (Lime OG), Red Rubin, and Dark Opal.  All of these seeds are from 2016, commercially purchased.

Send me a PM if you'd like to trade. What a Face

I have these:

Black Beauty Zucchini

Mortgage Lifter Tomato

Sweet chocolate pepper

Millionaire eggplant (I think).

All were purchased. The "tested" date on all the packages is 11/2016. I have extremely limited quantities because they were sample packs to begin with, and I've shared with someone already. I do have many varieties of tomato and peppers. So if there are other varieties you might like to try, I can check to see if I have them.

I would like to try celeriac, tomatillo, and any of the peppers you have, as those seem to have escaped my collection. 

PM me if interested.

I have Tennis Ball lettuce from Baker's Creek & Black Beauty zucchini from Seed Savers, both purchased this year. I have nearly full envelopes as I have a rather small garden and am starting a grand total of one zucchini plant lol. I'd love to trade for Oakleaf or Buttercrunch lettuce, or Calabrese broccoli.
