Hello all! I am gardening Organically for the second year now! While I do not yet have seeds to swap,I am hoping to start saving from my harvests this season! That being said , i would love to have any seeds that you all might consider sending me ,as I am trying to grow good organic veggies and fruits to feed ten needy families in my area(as well as my own and my girlfriend's)! Along side that I'm trying to raise awareness about growing your own food in my community! I will be teaching families how to grow their own food ! I am taking this task on as an unemployed regular Joe dude who cannot afford to keep buying everything from the grocerystores (not to mention what they do to our food these days) any thing you can send will be fine ! If you need S.A.S.E. just tell me and i will send them! Thank you so much ! My address ; Charles Keen 4728 River Rd. Wilson,NC 27893

I have built a 10'x10' greenhouse from scrap wood ,plastic ,old storm windows ,and corrugated barn tin! T he tin is around the bottom perimeter, from the ground ,up to around 30" or so. Its attached to the outside. could I paint it black, inside and out,attach more on the inside(painted black also) ,leaving an air space vented at the top of the tin,to generate heat to keep plants from freezing on really cold days? could i fill it with some medium to collect the solar heat and release it slowly at night
