Welcome to the 2011-12 Seed Exchange

Please Note: 

We are no longer accepting orders for the 2011-12 seed exchange and this page is for reference purposes only

 

There are several changes to this year’s Seed Exchange, so please read the following information carefully.

Pricing:

All seed packets are still the low price of $1.00

Postage and handling for domestic orders is $3.00

Postage and handling for international orders is $5.00

So, if you buy 20 packets and it’s a domestic order you pay $23

If it’s an international order you pay $25

Two Easy Ways To Place Your Order:

1.  Online - We are pleased to announce that the SPCNI Seed Exchange is now online!  Members can view the seed list, photos of pod parents, place an order online and pay with Paypal.  For our international members, please note that foreign currencies are accepted by Paypal.  We hope you will make use of this great new resource.

2. By Mail - You can still place your order by mail and pay with a check.  Be sure to include the following information:

    • Item number, name, and number of packets per type. Having both the item number and name reduces confusion in case I can’t read one or the other.
    • Your shipping address
    • A check made out to SPCNI.  (Credit card payment is available only through Paypal this year so please don't send me your credit card number)
    • Please include an email address.  If I can’t read something or have a question this helps me resolve things quickly and correctly.  If you don’t have an email, try to give me the email of one of your friends who does.
    • Optional: You can also send me a list of substitutions in case I run out of something. This happens a lot.  When this happens, I will make substitutions from your list, give you more of other items you’ve ordered or substitute with something “close”.
    • Send your order and payment to

Order Deadline:

The deadline to submit your order is January 15th.  Orders will be filled in the order they are received, so get your order in early.  Orders for multiple packets of the same seed lot will be filled based on availability.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about your order or if your order does not arrive by March 1st for domestic orders and March 15th for international orders.

How To Read the Listings:

    • The first column is the listing number and it now includes the year it is being offered.  For example, 110.11 means listing # 110 from the 2011 seed exchange list. 
    • In the second column you’ll see the letters L, M or S. This refers to the quantity of seeds that we have available. In an effort to share each donation with as many people as possible, the number of seeds in a packet will be based on the quantity available.   You'll get the most seeds per packet in an L listing and the fewest seeds in an S listing.
    • The third column includes the description and name of the pod parent or the cross that produced the pod parent.  Names within parentheses identify the parentage of a single parent.  All seeds are open pollinated unless otherwise noted.
    • At the end of the third column, you will find the initials of the seed donor along with the year the seeds were submitted.

A BIG Thank-You to all who donated seeds!  Donor participation makes the SPCNI Seed Exchange possible.

Happy growing,
