If you don’t have anything to offer, bring an interest to learn – there are always free leftovers to take home!
Bring a plate of food to share if you can, we love to sample your home grown produce!
Present your goods on the tables provided in the covered area.
Use trolleys to transport your swap items. Bring fold-out chairs for a more comfortable seating option
Wander around and browse others' offerings.
If you like something, offer a fair exchange – think of the value in a nursery.
Don’t settle for a swap you’re not happy with! Some swappers have differing views on fairness.
If both parties agree, swap your items!
Food plants tend to be more desirable than ornamentals.
Rare or interesting plants will get you more attention!
Do your research so you can share how to propagate your plant.
