Co-ops and garden swaps


So...The boys are out of town :( but we will pick them up in Columbus this weekend :) so I will enjoy my free time! With that we will be extending the garden, getting our chicks, a rabbit (why, I don't know!) cleaning the house and back yard. I had a meeting at church tonight to get ready for the summer series and think I am probably be more excited about it than the kids! I was at a table with a couple we know who has an organic farm. We were talking "business" and I mentioned the chicken and we talked more "business" (gardening is the best business EVER). As I was walking out, a lady approached me and was asking about what she overheard at our table. She said she likes to garden and grows a few veggies she has a surplus in and wanted to swap out some produce for eggs....This got me thinking...what else would be more wonderful than a garden swap at church?!?!? Place it in the bulletin and those that have more herbs than they can use and so forth can swap them out at a table in the main hall. (I know...I'm such and idealist!) Pleasant thoughts :)
