I have a shelf full of the old issues. It was always my favourite. I’m going to be optimistic & hope it is great in its new incarnation!

Happy birthday!

Awwww... so sorry for your loss.

Hiya Jp,

Just message me your email & I will send all of the information along. There are a lot of generous gardeners, so even if you send in a couple of seed packs, you will get lots back.

Cheers,
Nicky

Just a little bump in case anyone missed it... Last year we had 40+ gardeners send in packages. There is a bit of everything in the swap. Here are last years totals to tempt you! 1665 total seed packages, not including my additions. The breakdown, not including my additions to the swap: Just over 20...

Nearly bought some young frizzle Silkies and a quartet of rose combs, but behaved! I got in line to buy 4 maran chicks & ended up giving one of my boxes to a family in front of us, not realizing that they were buying the marans (; lol. I thought that I was supposed to have good karma! Ah well... may...
