:o:o:o:o:o sorry:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o

there was some posts where a poster was taking their surplus fruit/veg into a shop and getting 'credit' for them to spend back in the shop.

This poster also posted a link to a similar sort of scheme???

and now I cant remember what thread it was in... and I really wanted to find out more about it..

can anyone help PLEASE?

As I really like this idea, and I want to see if anything like this is in my area, or if something could be set up

Am considering joining the veg exchange scheme at a local farm shop. They will take my surplus herbs/whatever and give me credit to use in the shop. I think it's a great idea. Today I came away with onions grown by Bradford Youth Offending Team (lets hope they haven't spiked them ) and knobbly pink fir potatoes and blackcurrants grown locally. If you haven't got a scheme locally it may be worth suggesting it to retailers.
You can sign up to the scheme nationally to swap with other growers. Some self sufficiency resources here too.

One of the links leads to Down the Lane which I've mentioned before but forgot about.
There's so much stuff out there I find it hard to keep track!
So here it is again (interesting forum and a ton of info on chickens)
