Newbie is organizing an plant exchange

| I'm organizing a plant exchange for some of the parents in my kids' school. I'm wondering if anyone could kindly provide tips and/or a format for me to use. I'd especially like to know how you handle the exchange itself -- do you draw numbers to determine the order of trade, or how do you decide who trades what and when? Also, what requirements do you have for the plants that are brought to the exchange. Are they to be potted, what information should be included with the plant, etc. Basically any and all tips are welcome. Thank you! |

| I think you should take orders for specific plants for people to bring! And the first person to respond to this post should get to go first. jk :-D |

| I have a plant exchange and luncheon every year. Every one brings a one gallon perennial plant and covered dish. I number the plants and then we draw numbers, you get the plant matching the number you drew. One year I bought two sets of cards at the dollar store, put one in the plant pot and the corresponding one into the draw box,then you matched cards. P.S. I staple the cards onto tounge depressors and stick them into the pots. Groovey Junk |
