Get involved in seed swaps and your local garden club/group. They are both invaluable resources for you! Let us know if you're involved in either.

It is amazing the fun channels we come across and some stay out of vision. I need to ask others for recommendations. The Swap was so much fun and the organization (and execution) was fun too! Cheers Lisa!

Yes I’m part of the local co-op where we sell our seeds and produce, soaps, etc. Where I live we do a big formal seed swap at the local libraries (city and county ones), and a smaller one between friends that is less formal. I also did one online with Team Benson here on KZbin once! I think I dropped the ball on joining yours.

Long ago every spring a Lutheran church would host a tulip bulb swap. I recall Mom taking labeled paper bags. After that i would get to dig new flower beds. Thank you.
