Saturday June, 7 2014 Place: Augusta, is in NE Ohio on route 9, in-between Minerva and Summitville, in Carroll County. The swap will be held at the Fireman's Park on Andora Rd NE, you need to turn north at the Strawberry Festival Banner, the park is just up the road.
Time: 10.00 AM
This is our sixth swap. We have had five wonderful swaps. Anyone close enough that would like to join us, welcome. Come, meet new people, make new friends, enjoy yourselves, and get some beautiful plants. Please e-mail me if you have any questions at keetssix@neo.rr.com.

1. Trading Materials: plants, well rooted cuttings potted up, bulbs, shrubs, nice sized seedlings, garden material, lawn or garden ornaments, gardening implements etc. Please mark all plants with name or if name is unknown mark the care needed on a tag. Please may sure annuals are well rooted in their pots so they survive the day in the sun. Any one with extra pots please bring them to share, many of our older gardeners have many plants to share but are running out of pots.

2. Plan For The Day:
10:00 to 12:00 people arrive, sign-in with the number of plants they have, get their name tag. Place plants in viewing and swap area, they will be marked with plants varieties. Visit with the other traders, and view the plants.

Noon: Lunch, after lunch door prizes will be awarded

1:00 Swap begins
Round 1 1-plant choice
Round 2 1-plant choice
Round 3 pick two plants
Round 4 pick three plants etc.

3. Door Prizes: We will have door prizes. If you would like to donate anything for a door prize it would be appreciated. A donation can be any thing you would enjoy receiving yourself. A special plant you would like to share, a craft item, something you think a gardener would appreciate.

4. Pot Luck Lunch: Please bring a dish to share with a serving utensil. Please bring you own beverage with personal plates and silverware. There will be a donation jar if you would like to help with the cost of the shelter rental.

If you are looking for a special plant, ask here. Someone might have one they are willing to share or they may be willing to make a private trade.

I hope everyone can make it again this year. Twila
