Run by the Mountain View Library today from noon to 4 p.m.
to participate in a neighborhood plant exchange. If you haven’t done one of
these before, it’s an awesome opportunity to offload some extra plants,
cuttings, seedlings from your garden, as well as pick up some new stuff to
bring home. All for free.
I love plant exchanges, and haven’t been to one in years. I
tend to get stuck in gardening ruts and always plant the same things, mainly
those that are functional like herbs and vegetables. Being on a budget, it’s
sometimes hard to justify the expense of purchasing plants that aren’t going to
nourish my family. Silly, I know, as beautiful flowers or a garden can nourish
the soul which is just as important, but sometimes I just get too focused on
the mouths I have to feed. So I’m excited to see what my neighbors are growing
in their gardens and to maybe score some new additions all for free!
