Hello swapper,
Welcome to the Seed Swap Circle. This started as a shoebox in the allotment shed and has grown into a proper list. The rule is simple: send in what you've saved, take the same number of envelopes back. Nobody is keeping score beyond that, and first-timers can take five before they give.
Seed that's dry, clean and from an open-pollinated variety, in a paper envelope with the name, the year and where it grew. Plastic bags trap moisture and ruin seed. Garden Organic runs the Heritage Seed Library, which is worth a look if you want rarer varieties.
Post your envelopes to the usual address, or bring them to the shed on the first Saturday of the month.
