That's quite a selection! What are you interested in trading for?

Oh! Glad someone started this thread - I've been waiting the the seed exchange to begin :^) I have some available - I'll add my list later.

I'm interested to know more about the Huckleberry, Chichiquelite - is this an edible berry?

Thanks!
Marj

I'm interested in melons, peppers,some herbs or flowers and most common vegetables.

Also currently looking for beets, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, celery, radish, cucumbers, leeks, strawberries, garlic chive, dandelion, nasturtium, sweet peas, buckwheat, parsnip

Sorry, I usually do a seed exchange thread in the fall, but the canning season ran long for me this past year, and I never got around to it.

Gjcore, I have tons of garlic chives if you'd like some.

Here is a link to my trade page. It's fairly well up-to-date.

Wondering how hot that Tunisian Baklouti pepper is on your list?

Bonnie

Here are the seeds I've harvested this year:

veges -
Sugar Baby Watermelon
Black Krim Tomato
Anaheim pepper

Perennials -
Ganzia - mixed colors: Tanager (orange) mostly, and some from a pink and a yellow variety plants I got at the spring swap (I've never grown this plant before, but I think I love it! It blooms for a very long time, and looks like it is holding up very well through this winter. It is also xeric)
Lavender
Echinacea Cone Flower

Annuals -
Snapdragons - mixed colors (red, white and ?)
Larkspur - white & blue mix
Morning Glory - blue

I'd be interested in the Huckleberry seeds, gjcore, if they are an edible fruit. Also the Crimson Sweet watermelon sounds great. Let me know if I have any seeds your interesting in!

Wow Bonnie - you have quite a selection!!! I'd be interested in some of your 'Rouge Vif d'Etamps', Dill, Marigolds, and/or Cilantro. Let me know if I have anything you are interested in!

Wuffs

Bonnie, my peppers got all mixed up last year so I'm not positive but if they were the ones that I think they were very hot and I'd be interested in the garlic chives.

I've done quite a few trades on the gardenweb's seed exchange forum during the last week so after those are done I'll need to update my list again.

gj, I can ride my bike over to your place from here no problem (even in this snow), so let me know what you need and I'll make it an outing.

Dan

Dan, you are the man. I ride my mtn. bike in snow sometimes but I'd be really impressed if you ride over to Mission Viejo in this storm. Let me check your trade list :-)

Gjcore, have you ever done any swaps on the Round Robin forum? I've been numerous swap over there, even hosted a few, and find it much more fun that trading with just one person at a time. It's like getting a Christmas or birthday gift, when you get that big bubble envelope full of packets of seeds. Austinnhanasmom, from our forum, will be hosting a big tomato swap over there next month, and then I'll be doing my pepper swap again in March. You should join us.

If you'll email me your mailing address, I'll get those garlic chives out to you.

BTW, Dan doesn't seem to have a trade list yet. Maybe he could post what he has available on this thread : )

Bonnie

Mission Viejo isn't that far, maybe 5 miles from here.

Let me get the 2 deadlines done and the seed box out and I'll see what I have, but it'll be beans, lots of lettuce/greens, peppers, a few toms. Hopefully by mid-week I can pay attention to my list.

Looks like my Zone listing FUBAR has been fixed...

Dan

wufflespring, I sent you an email for a trade

mstywoods, I sent you an email

Bonnie, I'm not sure that I'm interested in the Round Robin trading. I need more convincing. Can you post a link to those 2 threads?

Gj, those are upcoming swaps, so there is no thread started yet. As soon as sign-ups begin, I'll be sure to post the link over here on this forum.

Here is the schedule for all of the Incredible Edibles swaps for 2011.

Bonnie

Here is a link that might be useful: 2011 Incredible Edibles Swap Schedule

Basically how those swaps work, is that everyone sends their seeds in to the host/hostess, usually with a wishlist, and a list of what they have sent in. Then, the host/hostess will divide the seeds up, trying to fill as many wishes as possible, and mail them back out. The beauty of these swaps, is the large variety you recieve back for just the cost of postage. For example, I have over 80 different types of peppers, and probably over 100 kinds of tomatoes. I could never afford to buy that many packages, but with a swap, you are usually able to send in multiples. Say I sent in 3 packets each of 5 different peppers. I'd receive back 15 types of peppers, all different than the ones I sent in. So I just tripled my number of varieties. Does that make sense?

Bonnie

That sounds better than the other round robin trades that I've read about where one package circulates to the next person.

I'm will try that.

I was wondering if anyone has any Brandywine tomato seeds they'd like to trade? My husband would like to try that variety this year.

Marj

Marj,
As Bonnie well knows I have a fair sized inventory of tomato seeds. I'm just starting to fill requests. If you will email me I'll send you some Brandywine seeds. I assume you want the Pink Brandywine? There is a Red and a Yellow. I also have seeds for several selections and crosses of it. The trouble here is the original Pink Brandywine doesn't set real well in our heat and wind. If you have an area with a wind break and afternoon sun that will help. I will have to see how many seeds of a few others I have left. I may send you a few surprises also.

And if anyone else desires tomato seeds just drop me an email and I'll try to fill them soon. I try to fill most requests 1-2 times a winter. Also trying to cut down my inventory. So culling a lot that I either have saved seeds for or don't feel I'll be growing anytime soon. Seeds that are starting to get 3-5 years old and need to be grown while they'll still germinate. If you want a variety there is a good chance I might have it. Jay

Hi Jay. That would be terrific if you could send me some seeds! As far as which type of Brandywine, hadn't thought about that as I wasn't aware there were different ones :^o If the Pink doesn't do too well in Zn 5 (Westminster), then probably should get the red variety that does better. Our garden does get a lot of sun most of the day, and backs to a fence. If you want to send some pinks as well, we'll give 'em a try!

Let me know if I have any seeds (see my early post) that you would like in trade!!

Please send me an email - I can't seem to locate yours on the site.

Thanks,
Marj

Marj,
I sent you an email. If you don't receive it please let me know. Jay

Marj, your seeds are on their way.

Gjcore, yours are ready to go, but I still need your mailing address.

: ) Bonnie

The best way for me to setup a trade is via email.

I'll try and contact you over the weekend GJ, as I've got plenty of several of what you need.

Dan

Greg/Bonnie - thanks so much for the seeds you sent, and for the education on how I SHOULD have sent mine! I never thought about them possibly getting crushed going through the mail system - I will definitely use bubblewrap for any future mailings!!!!

Hopefully the ones I sent to both of you made it in good enough shape to plant. This is the first time I've ever harvested seeds, so hopefully I did that ok as well and they will produce some good plants for you.

Thanks again,
Marj

Marj,
I have your seeds bagged and ready to send. I'm not sure what happeded to my email address on my page but I updated it and hopefully you can send an email now. I tried sending one to you but not sure if you received it or not. Jay

Hi Jay - sorry, I could have sworn I had replied back to you!! I just sent you an email now. Thanks!

Marj
Glad your email is back now :^)

Thanks, Jay (elkwc) for the Brandywine seeds - just got them today! Looking forward to trying each of the varieties you sent !!!

:^)

Marj

Bonnie, I've signed up for the tomato round robin. We need some more of the Rocky Mtn. Gardening people joining up :-)

You should let us know when that pepper trade starts.

Most definitely : )
