Come swap your spare specialty tomato seeds for some of ours. Or…. if you haven’t had a chance to purchase wild and wonderful varieties, swing on by so we can sell you tiny packets of six seeds for a quarter. What a deal! We’ll also have some mainstream tomatoes for those who prefer.
Herbert Hoover had visions of a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage; me, I dream of a tomato in every yard. For all who share that dream, we want to make it easy and affordable for you with our tomato seed swap (and sale).
We’re hoping our neighbors will bring their spare seeds to swap for some of ours, but just in case no one brings their extras, we’ve purchased some of our favorites in bulk to have on hand for folks who want tomato seeds at a bargain price. At the very barest minimum, we’ll have loads of: Amish Paste, Cherokee Purple, and Small Red Cherry Heirloom seeds available.
We’ll happily accept your seeds (no older than 2 years old) for our seeds (new this year), or sell you a packet of 6 seeds for a quarter.
Of course we’ll also have small quantities of specialty tomatoes available–we’ve just listed the ones we could buy affordably in bulk, so you know you can count on them to be there.
Want to help with the event? We would love to have you! Whether you want to portion seeds into little pouches ahead of time, want to help get the word out to your neighborhood (and beyond), help on swap day itself, or anything in between, please contact us at charlesstgardens@gmail.com. Email us today and be an integral part of this inaugural event. (And be among the first to get a peek at the seeds!)
