i can't wait for sunshine & warmth again! winter photo shoots w the chickies just aren't the same! can you FEEL how cold this picture is 😭?

also for once the 🤍 silkies refrained from head dunking in the freezing temps but apparently the 🤎 silkies figured they'd make up for it 🙄😅. Silkies man... idk how any of them survive really lol.

anyone interested in joining in on this seed swap? check out the original post - sounds like fun!

We've made it through Christmas and now we can focus on the 2026 GARDEN SEASON! 🙌🏼 We had a lot of interest in a "Blind" Seed Swap so I'm opening up sign ups! 🚦

Rules are as follows:

1. Sign ups start now until January 1st! You must mail your seeds by February 1st, no later! (But ALWAYS welcome to send earlier!)

2. Each swapper must send in 30 packets of seeds. Once I receive all packages I'll distribute them back to you with an assortment from each participant. They do not have to be all the same seed packets. You can send in a variety to make the 30 count.

Example 1: Swapper A sent in 30 packets of Okra seeds

Example 2: Swapper B sent in 5 🍅 tomatoes, 5 🫑 pepper, 5 squash, 15 🥬 bok choy

Any combination to make 30 is fine.

3. These can be store bought or saved from your garden. The only rule here is that they are for something edible.

4. Please make sure to share something you would be happy to receive. I won't put an exact count on what you should send but an example would be:

📍Small seeds like bok choy: a good pinch
📍Medium seeds like okra: at least 10 per packet
📍Large seeds like beans and squash: a minimum of 5 seeds
📍Tomatoes and peppers: at least 5
📍 If there are any other seeds that you'd like to send but they don't fit in those parameters just send me a message!

The goal here is to have enough of "something" to grow a small crop of and ultimately save your own seeds for a larger harvest the following year. (And of course to try something new and have fun!)

These are not "set in cement" rules for your seeds, just a general guideline to give you an 💡 idea of what you should send. For any clarification you can send me a message!

5. When you are ready to ship reach out for our address. 📬 I'll send you that and our PayPal or Venmo where you can send your 💲7️⃣return postage fee.

📍If you're local and want to participate you are welcome to drop off and pick up! Just me me for an address when you're ready!

💥 As a note: the sooner these are received the sooner I can swap them out. ❤️

👇🏼Please sign up in the comments; I'm looking forward to swapping with all of you!
Share this post with anyone you think might be interested; the more participants, the more variety! 🌱
