Hello BP members!
If you haven’t heard, I will be handing the Seed Exchange this year. I’m super excited for this opportunity and want to thank all those that have kept this exchange going over the years. This is a long-time tradition on BP, thank you all who have handled the exchange, participated in and donated special seeds in the past!
What is the Exotic seed exchange? Plain and simple It’s a second Christmas for Giant veggie growers. A search on BigPumpkins comes up with multiple threads from years past of generous participants sharing all kinds of cool and interesting seeds.
Like in years past we will be shooting for 40 participants. So please look to put together at min 40 individual seed packets. Please label them as clearly as possible.
Unfortunately, this year we will be limiting participation to the United States only. Last year none of the Canadian packages made it thru.
In an effort to get everyone their seeds before Christmas, I would like to have all incoming packages shipped at min by Dec 1st, please send me any tracking info.
If you have a special seed you would like to donate, please contact me. Like in years past, any special seeds will be randomly dropped in a lucky envelope.
Like in years past I will be contacting a variety of companies to see if I can get some samples added to your packages.
How to get signed up? Send me an Email to Jarosh96@gmail.com with the following information.
Please include: Bigpumpkins Handle: Real name: Shipping Address: What seeds you are sending for the exchange: Phone number: in case I need more info, if you prefer texts let me know. Cost will be that same as last year, $15.
If there are any questions please reach out. Paul

No problem. The flood gates have opened and folks have listed a nice variety of seeds so far. After we hit the half way mark I’ll put out a list of what folks have committed to.
