This website is a bit out of date, but the Philadelphia Seed Exchange is alive and well! In Winter 2015/2016, we had 3 very well attended seed swaps in partnership with the Culinary Literacy Center at the Free Library of Philadelphia. Stay tuned for more swaps this Fall and Winter and beyond! Please find us on Facebook and email us at phillyseedexchange@gmail.com.
