Objective:
Share open-pollinated seeds suited to local conditions; socialize with other gardeners; prepare for spring gardening season.

National Seed Swap Day empowers gardeners all over America to share their resources with other gardeners. It reduces the need to buy expensive seeds from commercial suppliers. Instead, gardeners share seeds from open-pollinated plants, allowing people to grow varieties that are suited to local conditions.
