    Seed swap

    Some one mentioned in another thread(Onestep) about having some surplus seeds, and a willingness to send some out. Anyone else?

    I haven't finished my inventory since I just finished planting, but I will and will post what I have a surplus of.

    It might be interesting to get some stuff that may not be available locally, but might grow anyways.

    How does packages of 12 seeds sound?

    Thoughts?

    Personally, I'd be interested in some Okra (being 1000+ miles North of the South, it is oddly not available here! - lol )

    I don't have a lot right now, but am willing to swap what I do have. Will have lots of seeds eventually.

    Sniper, I can cover you on the okra seeds.

    I've also got quite a few from this year's harvest if any of these strike your fancy.

    Costa Rican Sweet peppers
    Big Daddy Sweet peppers
    Black eyed peas
    Zipper peas
    Texas cream peas
    Black beans
    Jackson Wonder lima beans
    Soybeans

    I also have some Victory seeds that I've decided not to try and grow any longer down here as my success rate has been...well...lets just say less than stellar.

    Let me know which ones you'd like and I'll mail them to ya.

    It's still not too late to get a couple things in the ground, so I'd love to try some Okra, those Zipper Peas look pretty cool, and maybe some black beans???

    I'll PM my address.

    Farmers have been swapping seeds for as long as there was a seed. This is a great idea to start doing here. Neighbors and family farmers unighting together. Y even if you are not close. I just started and not yet have seeds from my plants. I just picked my first cucumbers today. But I do have a few extra heirloom seeds I have not planted in veggies, cooking herbs, medicine herbs, flowers, and I am making dry herbs. If anyone wants something tell me what you are looking for and I,ll see if I have it. I grow herbs for medicine so I have tons of seeds there.

    I am me,
    I am free,
    You can not change me.

    If you try, you will see,
    That I am unchangeable,
    Because I am me.
