2013 Crop Swaps in Richmond & El Sobrante
Hey all you gardeners and urban farmers – it’s time to start up the Crop Swaps again. Come and bring your excess garden produce to swap with your neighbors – lemons for chard, lettuce for herbs etc. You don’t need to have a lot of excess produce to come and you can also bring plant starts, gardening books and tools - anything related to gardening. Come and meet with your neighbors, trade gardening tips, recipes and help out your community. Excess produce can be donated to a local food pantry.
This year there will be two Swaps, one at the Richmond Public Library and one in El Sobrante. See below for more details.
