Plant Swap—A Time to Refresh Your Garden

PROGRAM

What better way to learn about gardening than from fellow gardeners? A plant swap is a great way to share your extra plants, acquire some new ones and share knowledge and fellowship with like-minded gardeners. The fall is a perfect time of year to divide plants and is a wonderful time to rejuvenate a well-established clump of perennials, or dig up plants and make room for something new and interesting in your garden.

But what do you do with the extra plant material? You are invited to register and bring your favorite plants, and in return, you will leave the swap with plants for your garden. Perennials, small shrubs, and houseplants are welcome in this swap. Plants need to be in containers and if possible, should be labeled with their name and type of conditions for the plant to thrive, i.e. shade or sun.

Join in this annual gathering with fellow gardeners! You are also invited to bring your gently used garden books and garden tools for swapping! All a great way to recycle, repurpose and renew. This program has become a perennial favorite over the years.
