Welcome Windy,
I have never been over there but yes there is a trading forum.

I might need to check it out, I will have more plants this year and might have something I could trade.

Hi Windy, and welcome to ATP!

There is another forum for "group buys" where several people get together to buy a whole tray of starts from some nursery that won't sell small quantities:

Welcome! Windy. I agree , you can start a thread on: http://garden.org/forums/view/...

You might get a better response if you first chit chat with folks a bit so they get to know you and know what kind of plants you like.
Let folks know what kind of garden you have, your climate/zone information so they would be better prepared to trade with you.
