I am in the middle of making Birch Syrup! Costly stuff though.......It runs about $65 per quart. Not at all sure how I could feasibly trade for it. I mean, what would be fair? Any ideas?

50# of potatoes! LOL!!! Just kidding.


If we are doing seeds, then I have some bush beans available now.

I'd be willing to do seeds...I have okra seeds right now!

Shipping taters up here could get you arrested, lol!

I grow produce for a living and sell it at the farmer's market and here on the farm. If anyone is from Central Illinois I would love to work out a swap but will not ship produce. We like to travel so if anyone in this area is interested, or if you are just passing through, let me know!

About the only thing I can manage to grow good is Jalapeno Peppers.

WOW that is expensive! You're in Alaska...I know your food is much more expensive. We would probably have to adjust some. I don't know what the equivalent would be because of the drastic differences in cost of living. I guess whatever anyone would be willing to part with for it that both parties are agreeable on you just can't argue with. I'd be willing to send a box of fresh produce or several dozen hatching eggs for a quart. My kiddo goes through some syrup. Here the maple is around $30 a quart.

Oh hun we're going to be good friends...lol! My DH LOVES fresh jalapenos and we can't grow them for nothing! I love making salsa and he loves eating it. We usually have to buy those. I'd trade for a box of them for sure!

Does someone want to go ahead and start a seed swap thread? Seems like there is a definate interest in that now.
