I love to garden and have gotten in the habit of saving seeds from
the plants that I really like, and want more of. Yet, my yard is small and I can't use all the seeds that I gather. Also, I bought garden peas this year and only used 1/4 of the packet. So I'm thinking, would any one be interested in seed swapping? We could list
what seeds we have, and share. Perhaps some one would only want 6 pea seeds due to space, someone else has lots..... get it? What do you think?

Oh Good ! I look forward to sharing. I like welsh and shirely poppies, and do they make seed! YOur right Diane, seeds aren't a problem across the border. I'm not sure the orderly way to do this, I guess we can list the seeds as we gather them and see who wants what. Any better ideas? Simply, Julia

Hi Diane, That's a good question about sending seeds across the border. I don't think there are restrictions on seeds, just plants. I have ordered from companies in Canada before. But we might want to check.

Hi Girls, Im game. I love gardening and am always looking for new seeds. I have a small space with mostly herbs and wild flowers. Michele

I think this could be a really fun thing to do. Does anyone know what kind of hassle we'd have to go through to exchange across the border?
I save a lot of seed and would love to share with others that are interested. I grow a medium size market garden every year and certainly don't need 20+ zucchini seeds in a pack!
