I have a large manila envelope all ready to go. It is full of flower and vegetable seeds. I had so much fun with a craft round robin recently that I thought this would be fun. The rules are simple.
1.Take only what you need and leave excess to share with others. 2. Add as much new stuff as you can. 3. Try to mail out promptly. (we did within 1 week for craft RR but I would like to see this go a little faster so everyone has time to enjoy it before it is too late to plant.)
I will limit it to the 1st 10. I can mail it out as soon as I get the first taker. Please email me your address and we will get it going.
No Plants...just flower and garden seeds.

Sandy,

I just wanted to thank you for organizing this swap to begin with. I was in on the first round and I was amazed at how many great varieties everyone included - that little plastic envelope was stuffed full! Speaking from the perspective of someone who struggled to uphold a different swap (financial reasons), and then felt horrible and avoided communicating until the swap mama tracked me down, it's never too late to make it right! I'm still working on my end of the swap I joined, sending out postcards to other swap members as I can and I'm finishing up the last few. I still feel rotten because I was so late, even though the swap ladies were VERY understanding, but better because I 'fessed up and am making good on my promise.

Thanks again, Sandy, for hostessing - it was a wonderful swap. I did basil and tomatoes this year and I still have lots of great seeds to plant next year!

I must say I am more than disappointed. Someone in this seed swap has chosen not to follow through and instead keep all the seeds for themselves. The seed swap was almost finished and about to come back to me. I am contacting the last know person to have received them and double checking that she mailed them on. I have tried numerous times to email the person that they were going to. She has never emailed me back which makes me believe it was too much trouble to do what is was right and finish her part in the swap! This has left me with a bad taste and I doubt I will organize one of these swaps again. it is too bad one person can ruin it for everyone. To all of you who participated and did it right, by sharing yours seeds and promptly passing them on I thank you and commend you. I had two rounds going and one finished just fine. The other did not. I had planned on combining the two rounds into one more with fresh seeds from this year but I don't think I will waste my time. If there is a good reason this wasn't completed I will change my tune. But we will see.

Rebecca, We have had a bog again! They are lost somewhere. I am still waiting for them to get back to me to start the next round. Keep in mind that this round will be more for getting seeds for next year. There is another Becky and she has sent the seeds on. Just waiting to find out what happened to them. I will put a note in here when I am ready to start the next round and everyone can yea or nay whether they want to give it a try. I do ask that you be prompt in sending them on. I know everyone is busy but it has taken over 2 monthes to get through 2 people.

Do you already have 10?


I'm so busy I don't know if I just found a rope or lost my horse!
ladedacreations Posted - Jul 26 2012 : 5:15:47 PM
Dont know why I didnt get the message. Finally we can wrap this up. After the seeds get back to me I am going to combine what is left of both rounds and add fresh seeds. Anyone interested in doing another round let me know. Thanks Sandy

It seems we have a snag again. Becky did you get the pkg of seeds??? I believe it was mailed around May 2oth. Should have been there by now. It was coming from DM. DM do you remember when it was mailed? I know things come up but for the fairness of all involved please try and be prompt in sending this on. Thanks Sandy

Dreaming! So glad to hear from you! I was wondering where the seeds were. yes we have 2 rounds going. I just got back the pack from round one so it is finished. Thanks to all who participated! There was a pack of Baker seeds in there that doesnt say what they are. Look like lettuce or carrots? Anyone remember? Please make sure the packs are marked. Dreaming,I will send you an address. Round 2 is about done so I plan to combine the seeds from both rounds and give it one more circle. I have new seeds to add and hope others do as well. Might be too late for this year but we will have a head start for next. So if you want to be apart of the combined rounds let me know so I can get you on the list. Thanks so much for keeping these moving! Sandy

There seems to be a snag in this round robin. It is the 2nd round that I started. The seeds are somewhere between Ruthie and Fran. Ruthie did you mail them on and when. Fran have you gotten them and if so have you mailed them on. Lets keep this moving asap so everyone can utilize the seeds. Thanks Sandy

Peg, round 1 seeds are on the way to you. Linda round 2 seeds are on the way to you. If any of your want to be part of the other round (different ladies and different seeds) let me know. I had so many ladies I split it into two groups to get it around faster.
