Holy Horticultural Hyperbole, Plantman! The Plant Swap Returns April 25, 10-2.

You have a thing for free stuff, I hear. Luckily, you can grab up a load of plant stuff and all it will cost you is a smile!  It’s Plant Swap time, where we bring in great green gobs of growth to the Whitehorse Crit Space and you come and take it off our hands. All you need to do is have something to put your treasures in as you cart them away.

IMPORTANT: This event has been cancelled, updated 10/30

Ross, Mazur, Technical Business Analyst with Mill Industries in Mukilteo, will be talking about how his company has turned consumer food waste into chicken feed. It's a win for the environment and win for chickens!

The EvCC Plant Swap is back!

On Tuesday, April 19th, you can root yourself in the Whitehorse Critique space when the Swap buds out from 10 AM to 1 PM and boldly avail yourself of free greenery.

Cue your opportunity to help out with donations of plant life. (Support your local Plant Swap!)

The Swap is going down on bended knee to say "puh-leeze get down and dirty"  in order to find cool things in your garden to share with the other Trojan Nation swappers.
