 **Guidelines for Swappers**

To ensure everyone goes home with healthy plants, please follow these simple rules:

***Label Everything:** Please clearly mark your tubers with the variety name (or color/size if the name is unknown).

***Quality Check:** Only bring firm, healthy tubers with visible "eyes" (growth points). No rot or mold, please!

***Bring Boxes:** We recommend bringing a small tray or box to carry your new treasures home.

**Pro Tip:** Arrive early! The most sought-after varieties usually find new homes within the first hour.
