People come to this with a spirit of generosity and community. All produce goes onto a communal table and then we can all take what we would like and what we think is a fair swap. No money is to be exchanged for goods. It’s not a barter system where x many of one thing is swapped for y many of another .Just sharing our surplus.
Bring along your own cup to share a chat over tea or coffee.
By swapping your home grown and homemade produce you will add variety to your diet, save money, reduce food miles, eat fresh local food, meet new people, catch up with old friends and gain knowledge about cooking and gardening.

Love it, Deb. I hope you get a good turn out and it keeps going into 2013. Sometimes its a struggle to get people to share when they insist on buying.... what has the world come to!
