What is a Crop Swap?
A crop swap is a simple and brilliant way to share the abundance from your garden. It’s a community-focused, non-monetary event where people trade homegrown produce, homemade goods, and gardening knowledge. It’s a fantastic way to meet neighbors, reduce food waste, and diversify your pantry without spending a cent.
What to Bring:
- Homegrown Produce: Whatever you have in surplus—from zucchini and kale to apples and herbs.
- Homemade Treats: Jams, chutneys, honey, eggs, or baked goods.
- Gardening Supplies: Extra seeds, seedlings, or cuttings are perfect for sharing with other gardeners.
Tips for a Great Swap:
- Label your goods: This helps others know what they’re getting and where it came from.
- Bring a variety: Even small amounts of different items are great for swapping.
- Come ready to chat: The best part of the swap is connecting with other local growers and sharing tips!
Whether you’re a seasoned green thumb or just have a few extra lemons from your tree, everyone is welcome. We hope to see you at the next Crop Swap Waiuku!
