More and more of us are experiencing warm spells that are allowing us to get out and play in the dirt (YAAAAY!). As such, we're starting to sort things out as to what we want to offer.
By opening registration early, people can start building their plant lists in the swap tool and use it as a way of keeping track of their planned offerings. It will also allow us to start figuring out what we may be looking for.
Because of the really screwy weather we're having this year, I am going to open the registration for Jan's May swap on February 21.
I realize that this gives us 2 months before trading actually begins, but I think it will help people stay organized.
Also, for those that are unfamiliar with the swap tool, it will give them plenty of time to play around, ask questions, etc.

In-Person Swap Saturday, May 6, 2017
This swap is being hosted by Jan and Jeff in Pennsville, New Jersey. Directions will be posted the week of the swap.
There are two threads set up for the Mid-Atlantic Gardeners 2017 Spring Plant Swap.
The first thread is to let us know who is attending and what food or beverage item they are bringing for the pot luck lunch.
2017 Spring Plant Swap
The second thread is for general chat about the swap. This thread also contains information on how the swap will be conducted.
2017 Spring Plant Swap CHAT
If you have any questions, please feel free to post them to the chat thread.
If you've never been to an in-person swap, don't be shy! After all, where else can you go and hang out with a bunch of people talking about plants with enthusiasm?
