Question 1

I’m new to gardening. What if I don’t have anything to swap?

Accepted Answer

You’re welcome to come empty handed and we are so happy to help get you started!

Question 2

Do I have to register for the swap?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We expect to reach max capacity so it’s great to secure yourself a spot.

Question 3

What should I bring to the swap?

Accepted Answer

Extra produce, seeds, extra seedlings, handmade goods, anything garden related! We'll have 10-15 tables set up for the community to use and share. You're welcome to bring a small square table of your own. Wagons or bags are EXTREMELY helpful for carrying around your loot.

Question 4

I’ve never been to one of your swaps. What should I expect?

Accepted Answer

Lots of swapping, socializing and free giveaways!

Question 5

How many items or seeds should I bring?

Accepted Answer

We don’t expect that each of you to provide enough items for every individual - that’d be crazy! Bring however much you are comfortable sharing. Usually 5-20 seeds makes sense for pre-packaged packets depending on the variety. Bulk sharing is also great.

Question 6

Is Kevin from Epic Gardening coming!?

Accepted Answer

2 Epic team members will be hosting a make and take Spring/Summer seed starting activity. We cannot predict whether Kevin will be available.

Question 7

Is it okay if I bring my kids?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, our swaps are family friendly and we'll have activities available! All kids over the age of 3 should be registered.

Question 8

Can I check out the museum while I'm there?

Accepted Answer

YES! You're welcome to explore the museum after hours and we especially encourage you to visit the Moon Base exhibit.
