I live in Eugene, OR, and would like to exchange plants and/or information with others in the Willamette Valley. I have a large tropical garden, tiny vegetable plot, and am re-landscaping my front yard to a small Mediterranean style garden. I always have musa basjoo pups to trade. Hope there is someone from this area out there!

My brother and his family live in that area. I'm in WA state. Sorry I don't live closer--sounds like you have quite the set-up!

Hi Marty,
If you want to try to reach out to someone in your area, you can click on the memberlist at the bottom of the page and then do a search for members in Oregon. The list will be sorted by specific areas. It looks like there are quite a few in the Willamette Valley. You could try Treemailing them if you had a specific question and they are near you. You never know who's active anymore or who's interested, but it might be worth a try.

Good luck!
