The Seed Exchange

Free for SABE

15 years ago

Hello! I was an active Exchange member a couple of years ago. Since starting my in-home business, I've been so busy I have a massive amount of seeds left that I would like to see go to a good home. I have everything from veggies to ornamental grasses, tons of flowers, etc. These seeds are all 2-3 years old, so I will include extras for viability. I did plant many last year and they all came up just great. They've been stored inside in a dark cabinet in the basement.

The easiest way for me to handle this is to accept the first 50 that sign up, and if I have more than that available, I will post an update. Please include a request list with your SABE envelope (don't post it here, as I don't have a lot of free time to log on, and it will get lost in my email, LOL!) of what you would like, or if you prefer a surprise package. Please also include on the request list your snail mail address and email address. If you can also email me with your snail mail address so I have a backup in case if package damage on arrival, then I can privately email you back with my address in which to mail the package. Each package will have 10 different varieties of seeds, but you may make your request list as long as you wish (within reason, of course!). I will do my best to fill the wish lists as much as possible. Give me a week or so to get all of them out - so those of you winter sowing should still have some time to get these last minute ones in.

Thanks so much from a fellow gardener!

    Hi everyone! It's been a crazy weekend. If you are on my list and didn't receive an email, please let me know. As of right now, I have room for about 10 more participants. Thanks so much for those of you that have replied! I look forward to giving the new babies their homes. My seven-year-old is excited to help me stuff envelopes, so off they come back to you! Regards to all! Jen.

    Hello! Sorry for the long delay in updating. I got an overwhelming amount of requests for those last 10 slots, so I will attempt to fill what I have - which I think I can get all of you in. If you haven't gotten an email from me, please be patient as I go through the large list - I will respond. :) I have been fairly successful in filling requests thus far, which makes me very happy!

    I will post as I get your envelopes to let you know they are on the way. 14 have been received so far, and were filled and mailed today, so those of you on this list following, watch your mailboxes early next week! Dawn V * M. Hughes * Velvet R * Susan M * Rebecca O * Amy D * Natalie B * Tracey L * James T * Hughie C * Ricky S * Jon C * Brenda S * Tola R

    Thanks to all of you for the labels, extra stamps, and request lists! It's made filling this amount fairly easy and rewarding! Have a lovely weekend, and happy gardening to those of you in warmer climates! - Jen
