Get matched
Partners respond. Transparent pricing. No surprises.
A packet costs money and holds hundreds of seeds; a trade costs surplus you already have and brings in varieties no store nearby carries — often locally adapted ones.
It is fresh (ideally last season), dried and stored properly, and labeled with variety and year. Open-pollinated varieties trade best because they grow true.
Personal, non-commercial swaps are generally fine in most places, but some regions restrict certain plants or imports — check local agricultural rules before mailing seed across borders.
