Annual Plant Swap 2017
What: The 8th Annual HRTI Plant Swap Where: Pioneer Park, located in Prairie Farm, WI. We will be in the picnic shelter--look for the large yellow SWAP signs! When: THIS SATURDAY, June 3rd, 10 AM until 1 PM What to bring: Spare plants (tomatoes, melons, peppers, flowers, annuals or perennials) that you want to share with your friends and neighbors! Bring a box or a bag or a bucket to fill, as we always have lots of free plants that need a new home. But, what if I don't have anything to share?? No worries! This event is a "swap" in name only; there is always SO MUCH STUFF that we actively encourage people to come and take whatever they can use in their gardens. Next year, you can share if you have extras...but don't let a lack of stuff to trade keep you from coming! Also, be greedy. All the extra stuff comes home with me, and I don't have that much space for 100,000,000 extra tomatoes....ha! Questions? Need directions? Feel free to send me an email cris.cantin@yahoo.com See you at the Swap! |
