Hello ladies. While we wait for all the totes to be posted and received, Rhonda, Lorraine and I wanted to have another swap. This swap will not be about making anything. It is a seed swap. All you gardeners out there, this one's for you! We would like those who are interested in swapping heritage or heirloom seeds (not F1 seeds from your local hardware or big box store) to leave their name, their e-mail address (spelled out to keep the spammers away) and their province, shire or state, as well as their country in the comments of this post. Since we are swapping seeds, which are agricultural products, we have to be very careful and keep swap buddies in the same country, and for some, in the same state or province. I will pair the buddies based on the information you leave so remember to leave me your state, or province, or shire and country. You may sign up until Monday, April 14, 2008. I have some links for all those who would like more information. Some of the links explain heirloom or heritage seeds and some are very specific to certain countries such as Canada, and Australia. Scroll down on several of the links for lists of many more links (sort of a link within a link :0). If any one has links for the UK, please e-mail them to me so I can post them; I seem to have come up short there and would love to hear from UK gardeners! http://www.vegparadise.com/heirloom.html http://www.seeds.ca/en.php

http://www.agric.nsw.gov.au/reader/pe-plantquarantine/quardomesbroc.pdf Please remember that the seeds need to be open-pollinated seeds or heirloom seeds, not F1 seeds. This should be a fun swap and the seeds will most certainly grow into something very special! Edited to add links from the UK Thank-you Clare!!
