I've been asked by a few people how the seed swap is going to operate, so I have come up with the following guidelines:
 

1.  Have fun – enjoy the swap

2.  Take out any seeds that you want 

3.  Put in any seeds you have left over or that you don’t want.

4.  It’s OK to put in or take out ‘just a pinch’ if that’s all you need or have to spare. 

5.  I will include some spare bags in case they are needed. 

6.  Please try to label any additions clearly

7.  Growing instructions are great – but remember you can look these up on the internet –      so don’t panic if there aren’t any shown.

8.  Try to keep the swap moving, and pass on as quickly as possible to the next person on the list .

9.  Make sure the package is clearly marked with a return address so it (hopefully!!) doesn’t go missing.

10.  Please post a message on the A4A swap link when the parcel has been received/sent on 

11.  Have a great growing season in 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any questions let me know!!!!!!!
