I will try to come up with a little want list at work today. I know I would be interested in parsnip, turnips, huckleberry nd purple broccoli. These are new things that I would like to try. I am also looking for the pumpkin Galeux (the warty one).

I know that I have a few sweet pepper seeds, some heirloom tomato seeds, and herbs. I will tryto get a list together. It is supposed to rain here again tonight and tomorrow so it does not look like I will get to plant out anything, STILL. UUUGGGG. I still havenot planted my potatoes and peas or anything. Driving me nutty.

Be back tonight

Nichol

I would like to grow mostly Heirloom or OP's so I can save seeds and share them later. :) I do grow a few types of hybrids types are listed below. My list is also pretty specific, so these are the things I really like and grow. I wouldn't be offended if I received anything from my wish list though! LOL!

What I grow:
Edible Flowers (I love Nasturtiums, Echinacea and Calendula)
Edible Herbs
Beans
Broccoli
Brussels Sprouts (hybrids)
Carrots (hybrids)
Corn (hybrids)
Pickling Cucumbers (hybrids)
Garden Berries
Okra
Onions (Bunching, Sweet, cippolini, hybrids)
Sweet and Hot Peppers (I must have traded my bells! LOL)
Pumpkins (Pie, Blue or odd looking)
Garden Peas
Tomatoes (On my list or the like types)
Squash (Winter Or Summer)
Herbs (From my list or the like types)

Things I'm not good at growing:
Most root types except Onions and Carrots.
I don't grow lettuces at this point. I just haven't figured out the right time cause it's so hot here most of the year. :)

A "Happy Easter!" bump :)

I have several extra seeds and would love to participate in this swap. I need to update my want/have list. I do have a current list on another website, but not on here. Please count me in!

Thanks,
J_and_C

I'm not sure how to update my have/want list on here, so I'll list it here until I can figure that out. The seeds I have for the swap should be enough for someone's family to try a good helping of the variety, and maybe have a few leftover to collect seeds from.

I also found two other kinds of seeds I am including that I forgot to list before. Now I'm not listing them on purpose. ;)

Can someone tell me how to get to my tradelist to create one and add a little personal information on there?

Thanks,

Hey Lurkers it's the last day for sign ups! :) Come on and join us for some great fun. Remember you don't have to purchase anything for this one, we're swapping seeds we already have in our seed boxes with our partner. :)

J and C, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, there is a link that says Member Pages, click that, and it will take you to a page that gives you the options of editing your exchange list, or changing your personal info, etc.

Bonnie

Thank you!

I dont have my trade list up to date at all, maybe i can work on that later.

What I am really looking for is herbs! Any and all kinds of herbs. I want to do a nice herb garden this year.

Mary

I posted my old email address earlier.

My email is jimmieb79@yahoo.com now.

Jimmie I sent you an email. :) Glad to have you join us. :)

Hi,

YW Christy. :D Now if we could just get Donna to say yes! lol

I just noticed I wrote till the 14th for sign ups. I thought I made this one till the 17th also?
ANy who, you can still join us here! You have one more day to sign up! What great swap! Get new seeds for the price of postage! What a deal!!!!

LOL I thought I messed up again by saying the 17th, cause I saw the 14th after I posted. ROFL Another one of my DUH moments. giggles...

Hi Thought I had missed this one, have all kinds of veggies and herbs, so since you bumped up the cut off, would like to join in the fun...thanks Deb

Sure Deb! Glad to have you!

Jimmie, you are making me curious as to what those 2 types of seeds are that you aren't gonna mention?!?! LOL

Ok...I mulled it over as long as I possibly could....and because Kathy batted her eyes all purty like I am going to join this swap!

Donna :)

YIPPEE! DOnna joined! We are now complete! LOL!

Anyone else lurking around? Last chance!

Hi everyone,
I will post my list tomorrow morning or early afternoon. I wanted to let you know just in case you are going to try to match partners based on our lists.

Amy

Well, I just re-updated my list. Got my Seeds of Change catalog in today. I was beginning to think I had just about every seed I could possible want, but I was wrong, LOL! Not that I expect anyone in this swap to have all of the rare heirlooms that they carry, but I was just excited to see some "new to me" things.

Bonnie

Hi Just got the list on my members page...will make it a lot easier. Thanks Deb

One pack of seeds are veggies, and one fruit. The suspense has you at the edge of your seat, doesn't it? hehe I can post what they are if I need to. Just let me know.

J_and_C
(Jimmie and Crystal... mostly Crystal)

I am eagerly awaiting THE ARRIVAL OF MY NEW ROTOTILLER!!!!! Uncle Sam gave us a tax return which I promptly spent, to help the economy of course! It's suppose to be delivered today.

In the meantime, we landed a big project, but it needs to be completed by the end of the month. The field work will take me 6-7 days. So I will be working all weekend and probably next weekend too. No time to play with my new toy until the project is done.

Found some more seeds I forgot to list. I think it's another veggie. Here's the three extras I forgot to list at first:
-Sugar Baby Watermelon
-Straightneck Early Yellow Squash
-Collards, Vates - Brassica oleraceae

I am slowly adding more and more to my exchange list. Can't wait to find out who I am sending to! :)

J&C

My rototiller is HERE! Now, I'm wishing I could spontaneously absorb all the info in the manuals!

Sheeesh! I also have found a few Nasturtium seeds. They're a mix of Dwarf Alaska Mixed Colors and Dwarf Jewel Mixed Colors, so I'm not sure which they'll be, but I literally only have a few seeds..3

Congrats Becky! What kind did you get? Time to learn how to speed read to you can take in all the manual tells. hehe

Crystal, sounds like you have quite a bit of seeds to share too. :) Glad to know which name to call you too, thanks. hehe :D And oh yes! The suspense was killing me! LOL

The rototiller is a 208 cc Rear Tine Troybilt Bronco. I feel like I should be Tim the Tool Man Taylor. Can you hear me saying, "More Power," and grunting afterward? LOL!

Here's a picture of my baby.

Here is a link that might be useful: Rear Tine Brono Troybilt Tiller

Congrats BEcky! I am so jealous! My parents are moving soon, to a sandy location on the water, so I am hoping to steal my dad rototiller when they move! lol!

Crystal, dont worry about posting every little thing. I think it will be fun to send your partner some surpises too! I think it is more fun to not know everything that you are getting, know what I mean?

Today is the deadline, if we agree that we close today, I can have partners up by tonight!
Christy

Very nice! I can hear the grunting! Hilarious! What I really want to know is if you will be driving that thing or will hubby?

Which comes to the question... How many women here can run something like that? I'm afraid of them I won't even lie! I can use the little one though. ROFL!

This is the one I am gonna be using (it's on layaway at the Pawn Shop) Yeah, I just realized how hillbilly that sounded. ROFL My hubby got a guy to till up the garden for me this spring, well "I think" I can maintain the garden with this mini tiller so I splurged cause it only looked like it may have been used 1 or 2 times and works great. If I can't my hubby is in deep trouble and will have to get the "Big Boy" for the garden and we'll have to use the mini for the flower beds. ;D

Kathy, make no mistake. That's MY toy. I just hope he doesn't expect me to learn how to use the lawn mower now. ROFL! I had allergies as a kid (still do but not as bad.) So it was my Dad's or my sister's job to mow the lawn. I've never used a lawn mower.

I also want banana peppers, forgot that on my list! :-)

Amy

Becky, I'll use the lawn mower, kind of count it as a workout, but I won't touch the weedeater. Hate that thing! Probably because I can't seem to cut a straight line, and end up with ruts in the yard, LOL. I have some handheld grass shears that I'll use if the yard really needs edging and DH doesn't have time to get to it, but then the neighbors tease me for "cutting the yard with a scissors".

Bonnie

LOL Becky!!! What made me have a fear of it was because I watched the guy till up my garden area and I thought that thing was gonna shoot straight up in the air a few times. I almost went running across the garden at one point to catch him! Which would have probably hurt me more than him! HAHAHA! Good thing he didn't see me, he probably would have died laughing at me.

I'll use the lawn mower, weed eater, edger and blower though... Go figure. ROFL! (At least Becky has an excuse not to mow! LOL)

Bonnie! That's funny too! Neighbors, ain't they great for a good laugh. :D

Christy, I'll cross my fingers that you get that tiller when they move. :) I did my flower beds by hand again this year and it was horrible! Took me 2 weeks to get them right. Don't wanna do that again EVER!

Bonnie, LOL! I hate the weed eater too. I've used it twice in 10 years (after the DH started it for me). I usually just use pruning shears!

Kathy, ROFL! I have a great image of you running away, trying not to "scream like a girl!"

Christy, hope you get that rototiller!

This one is goign to take a little longer thatn the DD swap to put partners together. But I will have them up by tonight (Saturday night)/ Thanks! Christy

Take your time Christy. :)

Are you listing who we ship to on here, or are you emailing that information to us so no one knows who is shipping to them yet? Just wondering seeing how I check here way more often than my email account. :)

Hey Crystal!

Christy started a new thread with the swap partners listed. Just follow the link.

Bonnie
