HAVE: Looking for trades!

RiverNymph
11 years ago

Looking to trade for equally unique varieties of veggies, herbs, or flowers. I'm not too interested in anything commonly found in the American grocery markets. That isn't to say I don't trade American seeds, of course I do! Just not interested in overly common cultivars. Serious traders only. I typically will trade 5-10++ seeds per variety, more if the seeds are available. I will let you know on the availability of all requests. Thanks. :)
___________________________________
Interested in receiving:
Heirloom Veggies of all sorts
Wild/Forgotton Edibles
Rare Eggplants
Medicinal Herbs
Garlics/Shallots
Alliums
Flowers
Seeds internationally
___________________________________

70% (estimate) of my seeds were purchased from Sustainable Seed Company, Baker Creek, and other reliable seed sources of which will be written and labeled on every packet swapped. The other 30% are from my own garden or various trades. The seeds received from trades have been tested for germination success.

    Hi I love your tomato varities :) Are you looking to trade for growing this season or next? It's a little late here to get a lot of this started this year. I'd love to grow some of your varities next year. If you aren't looking to start tomatoes now, I think we could do a nice trade. This is a big seed-saving year for me. My stock is real low. You can message me privately- I don't like to put all my seeds on here. My trade list is up to date with everything I can trade now, but at the end of the summer a lot more will be available.

    Hi RiverNymph,

    Please see the link below for getting set up for trading. Many members won't respond to a trade post if there is no way to reach you.

    Hello all, I will respond to all of your replies shortly.
    Thanks for the advice on providing better contact. The thing is, is that I have had privacy issues with stalkers in the past (ex boyfriends). Yes, I know sounds dramatic. But I guess that's one of the many perils of the internet these days. They've found that all they have to do is troll these boards, respond, get a response, and boom they have my email address. It gets annoying. So it's a little tricky..

    Will change that, still. If you go to 'my page' you should be able to email/contact me directly now - the link is present. =)

    I can't email you back privately. I won't put my address out here so you are going to have to email me your email if you do still want to trade. I can respect your privacy issue, but I have privacy concerns too.

    I'm fine with everything you have requested. I am most interested in:
    Nero di Toscana Kale
    Chocolate Stripes
    Azoychka
    sweet pea currant
    Russian Orange Oxheart
    Peach Blow Sutton
    Pink Honey

    Hi there...just curious if you are still wanting to trade? If so, take a look at my list and see if there's anything you would like to trade for. I have many heirloom tomato and squash varieties available, and I am interested in many of your tomatoes, peppers, and the galeux d'eysine squash. What a great trade list you have!
