What is a Crop Swap?

A crop swap is a simple, no-money exchange of homegrown produce and homemade goodies. It’s a fantastic opportunity to share your garden’s bounty, get something new for your kitchen, and meet fellow gardeners in your community. It’s all about sharing, connecting, and celebrating local food.

What to Bring:

  • Fresh Produce: Fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers from your garden.
  • Homemade Goods: Jams, chutneys, preserves, eggs, or baked goods.
  • Gardening Extras: Seeds, seedlings, cuttings, or plants you’d like to share.

Tips for a Successful Swap:

  • Label Everything: Clearly label your items so people know what they’re getting.
  • Bring a Basket: A basket or bag is handy for carrying your items and your new treasures.
  • Come Ready to Chat: The best part of a crop swap is meeting and connecting with other local growers.

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just have a few extra lemons from your tree, everyone is welcome. We look forward to seeing you at the Merrilands Domain Hall!
