MSE rules forbids the exchange of personal details on threads or by PM so how is this going to work?

Mrs_B_12

You click on the link that Poet posted and you use that site for exchanging seeds. No details are exchanged on here at all.

you can make small packets for your seeds too.just keep some used envelopes and make small packets for them.you can do them all different sizes.been doing this for years now and it does trick.give them to your family and friends for wee gifts.great idea.
