First swap was a small-but-mighty success!

We had the first swap outside on a beautiful morning.  5 people attended.  Some folks brought several jars of the same item to swap.  Some brought one of a bunch of different foods.  The swap went seamlessly & everyone went home with a new assortment of foods.

The next swap is "planned" for early November.  By then we hope to rustle up twice as many people.  Maybe we'll all bring a friend.  Hopefully we'll also find some folks in Internetland that want to join us.  I'll pick a date soon. 

The next swap we'll open up to any FOOD OR GARDEN RELATED ITEMS including plants, cookies, whatever.  For the November swap we'll try to be Laissez-faire about what works as swappable items.  In otherwords, just bring it.  We'll let the swapping market decide if it works.
