FAQs
What can I swap? Spare seeds (please ensure they are bagged and accurately labelled, seedlings (home grown or spare ones from what you have bought at Bunnings, please ensure they are labelled), and small to medium sized plant cuttings. We ask that participants do not bring along large quantities of items with them as space is limited.
How does the swap work?
Each item will be exchanged for a token (1 pack of seeds = 1 token, 1 seedling or small bunch of seedlings = 1 token). Tokens can then be exchanged for an item in the swap. When you register your items on arrival please advise staff if your items are grouped or not.
If two or more people want the same item then this will be decided by either a game of paper, scissors, rock or by drawing a name out of a hat.
10am - 10.30pm - Participants arrive, sign in, and register items.
10.30am - Swapping begins! Participants are invited to peruse the items on display and can begin exchanging tokens for items. Please ensure you abide by social distancing measures. Hand in tokens to staff when you have selected an item.
12.00pm - Swapping ends. If what you brought to swap didn't get exchanged then please take it home with you.
12.30pm - End of the party! until next time.
