Community Plant Swap

October 20 @ 17:00 - 18:00

Join us for our first plant swap at HerSpace!

Whether you’re a newbie or and plant pro, everyone is welcome to join us, with a plant or a cutting, of course. You can also bring pots and seeds that you think another plant lover could re-use.
Connect with your local community of plant lovers and learn gardening tips and tricks from them.
All the plants and cuttings will be set out on a table. Once the event begins, everyone will get a chance to walk around the table to to see what’s available. Then the swap begins – Choose a plant/cutting you want to take home.

Rules:

  • Please bring along one or more plants or cuttings with you to swap. That way everyone leaves with a new plant at the end of the evening. Make sure the plant you’re bringing is healthy and not infested with pests.
  • If you know the plant type, please label them.
  • Bring cuttings wrapped in damp kitchen towel, plastic bag or container so they survive the ride to their new home.
  • If you’re bringing a potted plant, please make sure it’s a pot you’re happy to give away or bring them in temporary pots like yoghurt pots, tins and takeaway cups.

This event is free to attend!

Please RSVP HERE so that we know the number of attendees and can prepare the space accordingly.

We look forward to meeting you and talking plants!
