I want this forum as edifying as possible so others can learn of my efforts and the benefits of them. Take care!

Greetings folks! I have some Tama Flint corn and Miami green spotted pumpkin in return for more rare Potawatomi or Miami heirloom crops. If they're not available then please find out if anybody has more rare Cherokee or Choctaw ones since I have family ancestry in Mississippi and Oklahoma. Please reach me at my Purple Mooseage if y'all need me. Take care!

I'm here to set up a seed trading app. I've been doing it since 2017 I just want enough people to know me first. Then we move on to setting it up and creating it. It's like disruptive to my psyche that the people of Facebook andreddit can't trade with other folks.. want seed trading all together in an app.
