Ok, I'd love to join a group swap, have plenty of seeds. Can someone walk me through this? I'm unclear as to whether I send 20 packs of seeds to each participant, or only to the leader. I know I put postage on the seeds I send, but do I also include postage for the return trip? Do I get 20 packs of seed total in returrn? And how do I not get the same seeds returned that I sent out? I've searched the site but can't find info. Thanks for your help.

Seedmoney,

Normally when you sign up for a swap, you pack your seeds with your name on the package so a seed packet would say shasta daisy and on the bottom I would write from ishare This lets the host "token> know that they were sent in from you.

If you send in twenty packages of seed and it costs you $2 to mail the envy, you would put in your envy an additional $2 so the host has the $$ to get your twenty packages back to you. It's a great deal! you get twenty new varieties of seed for $4!!

I hope this helps

Lisa

oh and you should include a self addressed label so that the host can just stick it on your bubble envy for the ride home.

Also you are sending in twenty seeds packs in total unless you have side deals going or want to send extra. So it isn't twenty per person just twenty all together.

And email me through gardenweb so I can send you my address. If you have any questions, let me know.

20 packs, mailed by Nov 20. About $2 in stamps should get them back to you. There might be extras in the pile when it's all done.

Seedmoney,

I would encourage you to take advantage of these. I always feel like it's Christmas all over again when I get my envelope back. :O)
