I came up with an idea for a massive seed exchange idea that we could do here on ATP and I submitted an article about my idea to the Ideas and Articles section, so hopefully it will get posted. Rolling my eyes. Whistling It is clear to me that there are a lot of us that would like to trade seeds (and plants) and find some new things.

Since I've started formulating my idea and writing the article, I've been contacted by two people wanting to trade seeds with me. One of them described a seed exchange robin that they do, which was a really neat idea and I thought I would suggest it to you. The idea was that there is a designated group of people and everyone puts a bunch of seeds in a box and ships it to the next person who takes seeds they want and puts extra seeds that they have in the box and ships it to the next person and so on... It's a pretty cool idea, but I guess it all depends on where you fall in the mailing lineup and what your seed choices are by the time it gets to you.

My idea is far more complex, but possibly more rewarding for everyone. Like I said, hopefully it gets published--and soon--so that we all can perfect the idea and have a large-scale seed-swap!
