Seed exchange
I know this forum says seed exchange, but it doesn't look like anyone has posted anything about trading. I would love to exchange seeds. Unfortunately, I only have boring/normal seeds, but I am willing to trade for other seeds. I would love to have some fun plants and herbs. I am in zone 6a.
Re: Seed exchange
since the season is just starting for alot of people not too many have seeds yet to exchange but after first harvests and such im sure there will plenty out there

Re: Seed exchange
I just thinking of left over seeds from seed packets, I have a ton left over. My seeds are all very common though, so not sure if anyone would even want them. I was planning on saving them for next year if I didn't exchange them for something else.
Re: Seed exchange
yeah most of the ones i have for now are common lowes/homedepot/walmart stuff although there are some posts on here with websites to get hierloom seeds and tons of diffrent stuff i just didnt get my orders ready in time so i went with what i could find localy but next year look out cause im gonna be on fire

Re: Seed exchange
yeah, all mine are from Lowe's etc. If someone wants to exchange common seeds I'm down with that. There are so many seeds in some packets, I could never use them all
Re: Seed exchange
Here are some links for GREAT seeds!! They will make for SUPER exchanges at the end of the season as well. They support high biodiversity, YAY!
SEEDSAVERS.ORG
RARESEEDS.COM
HEIRLOOMSEEDS.COM
HERITAGEHARVESTSEED.COM
Next season I plan on doing only these types of seeds. After buying plenty of chain store seeds, I did some research and found that we really need to preserve our other species. I also found out that organic seeds can be hybrids. I think there might be a forum on this topic, if not maybe I'll start on.

Re: Seed exchange
There are so many seeds in a packet!! Has anyone thought about swapping some of there extra instead of just what they save from plants?
Like I just got a short season hot pepper but only started two peppers. I have a whole (small) packet of seed left. As I put the seed packet into the container I wondered if there were any other short season gardeners who might want just a few seeds in exchange for something they might have?
Deborah ....knows it is getting late for starting peppers and just wondering.

Re: Seed exchange
If we are going to do this trade, it would be easier to have two separate threads, one for ISO (In seach of) and one for IHA (I have available), or at least divide up the post like that, makes it easier and more stream line 
Just an idea.

Just an idea.
Thank you Choco, good idea!
I just have time to pop in between moments at school. Would you like to start the thread? Maybe Dayna?
Deborah.... Who also has too many tomato plants....TIA

Re: Seed exchange
It would be a good idea to have two threads for wish list and have list. You would link your have list on your wish list post and vice versa. It might be easier to have your want and have on the same post.
