Spring Seed Exchange

Hello and welcome to my first ever Spring Seed Exchange (Plant Pal)!

If you have participated in my Teacup & Coffee Mug Exchange (Tea Pal), you’ll understand how the Spring Seed Exchange will run. If you’re new here, welcome! I’ll explain everything below, and you can email me (sandra@sandrabyrd.com) if you have any questions regarding the exchange. 

How it works:

You fill out the form and let us know you’d like to exchange a seed packet with a new Plant Pal. Sign ups will close Sunday, May 1st!

You’ll be paired with a partner (due to agriculture laws, only US participants - sorry!).

You and your partner will email each other to exchange contact information so you can ship each other a seed packet.

Get to know your new Plant Pal! Tell your friend what you like, your interests, and maybe a favorite gardening memory. From this, you can decide what type of seeds to send. This is a great way to make a new friend, too. I’ve met several pals through the Tea Pal exchanges of years past who I’m friends with to this day! 

Visit your local garden center and select a seed packet to send to your Plant Pal. 

Package and send your seeds to your friend by Wednesday, May 11, 2022. 

Share a picture of the seeds you received from your partner by Wednesday, May 18. (Submission guidelines will come when you are matched with your partner.)

From those submissions, we’ll draw the name of a person who will win a $25 Starbucks gift card with a beautiful “thank you” card (see below) to send to anyone you wish who has planted good seeds in your life plus a $25 card for yourself!
