This Saturday is the Middle Tennessee Plant Swap at Henry Horton Park. This is a fantastic opportunity to talk to other gardeners and exchange those extra plants you don’t need for some you do! If you haven’t already gotten your plants ready you should do that ASAP to give them time to recover from any potential plant shock. Exchanges aren’t limited just to plants. If you have a craft and want to swap for plants you might be in luck as people will swap for all kinds of garden related items.
There is always a guest speaker and this year it is Curt and Tina Wideman who run the Morning Glory Orchard in Nolensville.
Before you go check out the Middle Tennessee Plant Swap Website to get all the details and complete your registration. You need to register so that the Volunteer administration has some idea how many folks are coming. You also need to bring a really tasty dish for me to eat everyone to share. So go outside right now, gather up your daylilies and extra tomato plants, and get yourself to Henry Horton Park on Saturday, I’ll see you there!
On a personal note: If anyone out there happens to have any extra Panicum virgatum (Switch Grass) let me know!
Boy, would I love to go to one of those! Maybe we should organize one here.

I wish I could go, unfortunately I think we’ll be painting the inside of a house-hoping it will sell soon. Have fun!
Boy oh boy, Do I wish I lived closer to you! What a great idea for sharing all that is extra! Have fun:-D
There will be one of those here just outside Ithaca, NY, this weekend, too. And it’s the day after the town’s annual plant sale where all the growers come together at the high school parking lot with just about everything imaginable. Gonna be a great weekend! Enjoy your swap 🙂
That sounds like a fun event! Have a great time.
Wish we had more swaps where I live. I’ve been to only one but it was fun! -Jackie
Have fun Dave. Sure wish there were swap meets here. It sounds like a lot of fun.
