Address received for the next trader in Florida. I have some tomato packs to add, then I will be done. The gallon sized tomato bag is now so bulging that I won't be able to close the box unless I lay each individual bag flat. I'll send the big bag along so the next participants can put them together if they take enough seeds to get it to fit. Of all the trades I've been in, this one is by far the largest and most fun.

I have no idea if it's too late to participate or not, but would love to join the swap as well! Out here in the Pacific NW we are just getting going on our growing season and I've still got space in my yard! Count me in. :D

It's not too late at all but it will take some time for the box to make it to your door. I have put you on the list. Please message me and or Tormato your mailing address. To keep updated as to when the box will reach you, check out post #48 on page 3 of this thread.

Posting an update on using the Large Priority Mail Flat Rate Box. Do not use a non-flat rate box, or an express box.

Leighamarie, we haven't heard back from you so just wondering what you thought when you opened the box and if you have been having fun looking through it?

Maybe she got too close, and fell in.

I just read through this thread--have exchanged/shared seeds before but have never been in a round-robin swap like this. Or the MMMM, which thread I still have to read through! :)
@Tormato Is it too late to join? It's too late to start seed for this season but I'd add to my seeds for future gardening. Thank you!!!

Tormato, sure hope that Leighamarie didn't "fall into the seed box." :lol: She might be too overwhelmed with all the selections. Maybe we'll hear from her soon.

It's never too late to join. You can join the EBTKS swap now, or wait for next year's edition. The EBTKS box would likely not get to you until sometime in August. My current illness doesn't affect that swap, which has been out on the road, for months.

The MMMM is currently on hold. I'll begin to pack and ship those seed packages when I am well. And, the next one should start up again in the fall.

Hi garden friends I picked up the EBTKS box today in FL :) I’ll go through as fast as I can and add my goodies and then send off to Teri in WA by next weekend 💖

I have been part of the mmmm swap for years, but would love to be part of this as well. Can I please get on the list, I have already planted all I need for this year, so wouldn't mind getting the box in August/September .

You're added to the list, and post #48 will be updated as the box makes its travels.

Sounds like the P.O. is unreliable. Mine said that when I mailed the box on May 21 to Leighamarie, it should arrive on May 23, but she didn't get it until June 7, two weeks later.
