CLOSED: Free Seed for Newbies!! Come on in!! 06-26-03 New thread!!
Ok here we are!!
To get your free seeds
Be Sure to put your damil name and a note of wants in your envie, along with return name and address
Address exchange is here http://davesgarden.com/address_exchange/
You have to add your information to be able to access everyone else's.
We came from here!! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1002208/
Please feel free to Dmail me with questions
Many of us "oldies" and some Newbies would like to share our seeds with those of you new to Dave's. By new, we mean you joined in the last 8 months(or so) and are a paying member.
Send me a SASBE (Self addressed, stamped bubble envelope) and we'll send you 10 packets of seeds. (Usually more, depends on our stash) That's all there is to it. Let us know you are sending your envy. Just Dmail me with sent envie today in the subject. You will get a good variety of good seeds.
If you can, stick a note in your envy and tell me they types of things you like. Veggies and Flowers, some seeds you are looking for, stuff like that. It will help me fill your envy. I can't always get just what you ask for, but will try.
Postage keeps going up so now we need five usually,
Send 5 stamps and an address label with your name on it.
4 of the stamps will go back on your return envy, the extra will go into the "pot" I don't use it for personal use, but it helps when some mail comes with postage due and when the "oldies" send boxes of seeds sometimes there is postage due.
Best thing to do is just send me an empty bubble envy with your label and stamps inside. I can use that same envy to send your seeds back. Saves that envy!!
Also, if you will scotch tape the envy to send to me, I can use the self adhesive and won't destroy your envy pulling them open when I get them. That stuff is "tuff" and I end up with mangled envy's going back to you
Please make sure you put enough stamps on your envelope you send to me. An empty bubble envy is at least 84 cents, so two stamps. If you are sending seeds, it's more of course.
PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR D MAIL NAME WITH YOUR ENVY.
I am in the address exchange, so you know where to send the envy. If you can't find it, just d mail and I'll shoot it right to you. At the top of your home page, you'll see the link "EXTRA'S" ,Go into that link, scroll down and you'll see the address exchange this goes to the exchange http://davesgarden.com/address_exchange/ you have to add yourself to the exchange then you can get my address.
Oldies! lol If you would like to donate seeds, it would be great.!! I know how much I loved it when I was new and someone sent me seeds to get me started. Now I want to pay it forward and maybe you would too.
For those of you who would like to help the newbies, but just don't have a lot of seed, if you would like to trade for seeds, that is great as well. Send seeds for the newbies and I will send you the same amount back. Put a note in with your DG name and let me know what you are looking for also.
Happy Gardening Everyone,
Robin

HI Everyone. To continue the oldest/youngest saga Robin asked for other middle ones. I have a question about that...do you want the right smack dab in the middle, the older middle or the younger middle? I'm number 11 out of 14 and the next to last girl.
Congratulations to the winners.
Margaret

I'm Here !!!!
Hi Flower, favorite of the week!
Those are Nicotianas sanderae 'Fragrant Cloud'. They are so easy and sweet smelling. I saw the pic in a mag. and hunted the seeds. They keep getting bigger and bigger. I've had to stake a few.
Wow Mindy I think that puts you at the head of the sibling roundup. :) Did you grow up in KY?
Yes I second the motion that Arejay will be favorite of the week next week.
Bye for now
Im here.. at least I'm ONE of the kelly's...ROTFL

Look very carefully at the title of the thread . . .
You've gone back in time six whole years.
and Kelz flashback comment (hint! hint!)
It all yours faults!! Its all the talk about oldest, middle and youngest... I forgot where I was.....And I cant fix it...ever. It wont even go when I make a new thread...you can all point it out to all the newbies as they arrive for many many years to come. And I don't even drink.......
sure . . . we believe you . . . ^_^
uh huh (shaking head up and down...)
Maybe I need a nap.
jeeeez...Old people!!!!
Look all you newbies... and be forewarned.. this is your brain... this is your brain trying to keep track of too many seeds... any questions?
grandparents did always like the oldest kids. and the aunts and uncles too. forgot about that locakelly.
i have a daytime part time job most every day of the week so won't be on until the afternoons arejay. i had you pegged for sure as an older child. what were you cue chik?
has the guessing started again? some of what yall say i feel like i missed a part of the thread that would fill me in. what was all that about the title of this thread?
Mama has sometimers too - ROTFL!!!!!!!!
lol... I am in the middle somewhere of 6 kids... but I am the youngest girl
Kelz
Oh gosh...You KT1 I don't know who said it on the last thread. You aint right!! That's why we like you!!
Ok Mama see after you afternoon nap!!
She's one of THOSE . . .
the youngest ones
Yes...shes one of those alright but my question is what is Syrumani? Shes the one that tattled she has to be a younger or a middle....
LOL... I might also state that I, yes ME... is daddy's favorite!!!!! Woot! which means, Im the trouble maker in my family.. yay me!
kelz
then i'm confused cue. daddy's favorite is a shoo in for the youngest but troublemaker........not us. that's the middle child's job. lol.
and sometimer's...........what is it? i just learned jonesing so i am jonesing for an answer. not really but wanted to show yall that i can be taught.
ok.. like I said.. I am somewhere int he middle of the 6 kids, but I am the baby girl... so, LOL, I get to have multiple roles... WOOT!
Kelz
I am right smack dab in the middle :)
ants
sometimers is like alzheimers (pronounced alltimers) . . . you just forget sometimes
i haven't known too many native floridians. what's it like growing up in florida? how old are you anyway? are the natives "country"?
and WOOT! WHAT is that? is that something native floridians say? lol.
forget? i know i am sending mescalero chief to marieortiz in arizona. i didn't forget that.
MJ, I am 36 years old. No, not all of us natives are 'country'...LOL. I am a city girl born and raised.
WOOT = yay, yahoo, yippie, woo hoo....etc, etc.
