Bring Your 10 Best!
The goal of the 2008 swap will be for participants to bring their 10 best plants to share. "Best" meaning well potted, clearly labeled, healthy, and desirable plants. Focusing on quality plants will improve not only the plant selection, but also the overall swap experience. The spirit of the Pittsburgh Garden Swap has always been for local gardeners to share their garden treasures with fellow plant lovers. So, when you're separating your perennials and preparing your plants for the Swap, remember to Bring Your 10 Best!

We would love to get your thoughts on what plants you're hoping to find and which plants you think that other participants will be excited to receive. Submit a comment below and help us develop a list of desirable plants!
The Swap is a great event for gardeners of all ages. We're pleased to announce that the East End Food Coop will be hosting a Children's Activity Booth! So bring the whole family to the Swap!
