... be interested in a seed parcel round-robin ???? Razz

I have many seeds that will soon go out of date, some have already Embarassed but as I can't grow them all ... would be happy to parcel them up for chaps to pik-and-dip Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

You could then chuck in your spare seeds, and post it onto whoever would like to take part and when it gets back to me those seeds that are spare I could take to a good cause charity shop ????

I'll put in a list with addresses etc. will also keep the postage to a minimum thought about 1kg = £3.50 there about absolute max to give folk an idea of what they might be in for !!!

So what do you think ??? Very Happy

Me too! Can we add seeds which are out of date but are unopened, so still have a chance of growing?

ps we'd have to make sure we had decent packaging to stop the mail crushing things in the rollers...

Not for me thanks. I can't be sure I'd ever get to the post office to re post the parcel.
Also I would take loads of seeds with all good intention of sowing them and would find them, mouse bitten and mildewed, in the shed 18 months later Crying or Very sad

I said yes so I could give my spares to good homes where they'll actually be grown next season. Then I can re-acquire as I get the plot going again. Parcel leaving me will be a good deal heavier than when it arrives (better send to me first, Flo!)
