Title: Just set up a plant swap website!!
Post by: leesa662000 on January 17, 2008, 20:12:48

Hi everyone!

Just to let everyone know; I've just set up a website purely for plant/seed/equipment swapping. Here it is:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Plantswapuk

I'd love to have you all as members!

Ps, Allotments 4 all - You are great! I'm not out to take everyone away....I still use this site as there are such wonderful people here. I thought that with more places to get seeds - the better for everyone.

Hi Leesa,
Can you give me some ideas how this is going to work?
No money changes hands (I'm guessing)?
Do we have to live close to the person who is offering/swapping?
Is it based on the freecycle principles?
Excuse me for asking so many questions. I just need to know before I commit to join ;D

I dont think you can post HTML on the forum as this would mean that more viruses can be spread.

You can swap any way you like.....by post or in person if you live near the other person that you wish to swap with.

A bit like this place.....

I'll be putting a link to allotments4all on there too once I have a few more members.

I don't think that you have to be a member of yahoo to join, just enter your email address on the page.

A BIG thankyou to everyone that has joined!!!! We have 32 members so far!!
