One I'm in has 3 a year! It is really a great way to get rid of your excess and get new plants you may not have otherwise ever tried. I have a night blooming Cereus on my windowsill right now thanks to the last exchange I attend. Something I'd certainly never have sought out or bought on my own.WashingtonGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950523974356540767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16905485.post-39630871792336213132007-10-16T10:25:00.000-04:002007-10-16T10:25:00.000-04:00Is it over commitment, or just doing what you love...Is it over commitment, or just doing what you love?

I want a pill to put me in a trance to get all the paper work done when I return so I can get out to the garden.<BR/><BR/>I was at the Holistic vet conference the same weekend as the Green Fest, so sadly missed it this year.<BR/><BR/>We spoke in our club last month about the environmental impact of the plastic pots we get from the nurseries and how to re-use the pots. We are collecting and sharing seeds, which is a big help to the environment (paper packages, shipped with gas, grown with chemicals, and more). I want to set up a great way to "plant shop" among our members rather than buy new plants all the time.<BR/><BR/>Christina ChambreauChristina Chambreauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03487052719908965069noreply@blogger.com
