Title: Digeroo Seeds Swap come full circle
Post by: Digeroo on March 20, 2010, 09:42:21
Much to my great surprise my seed swap has finally arrived back with me.  I thought it got lost several times.  But is has been wending its way around the countryside since the beginning of November.

It took in 25 places on the way.  It has been to Scotland, Wales, Dorset and Norfolk and lots of places in between.

Glad it has found its way home, I had a lovely rummage when it reached me. Thanks for arranging the seed parcel, it has brought many people a lot of pleasure.  :-*  ;D

Many thanks for everyone who joined in.

Yes Thank you there are some goodies for me.

But I also have some items which duplicate things I have got already.  Not sure what to do with it.

Options are
1.  continue with a rather low key swap.
2.  Split it up and offer it to the first few takers
3  Offer it as a newbie bonus to the first few takers.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

If the seeds are in date you could wait for someone to do another swap later in the year or next year and add the seeds to that.

or

See if anyone has mentioned if any schools are wanting seeds donated and maybe offer them to a school.

What about listing the seeds that are surplus along with any that you particularly want first ?
and then see what's left then??

Thank you Digeroo for persevering with the swap. I enjoyed getting the parcel and am looking forward to sowing the beans. I'm really glad it did make it back to you in the end  :)
