I've participated in specialty seed trains for peppers and true potato seeds in the past, and they've been fun. But I wanted to share the pictures that I took of an outgoing box of seeds after I took some and added some, and sent on to the next person just yesterday. This is a bonanza. :)



This swap was organized in the Going to Seed member-forums. At GTS we're learning to breed landraces adapted to our hyper-local gardens and farms through courses and discussion and we also share free seed! (With the hope that you'll send back more than you were sent.)

Have you had experiences with a seed train?

Still awaiting this train to arrive, looking forward to getting some new varieties and sharing some of the ones I have been growing.
 
It used to be a lot bigger, but now it is a rather tiny ad:
