Plant exchange table – Now, as you prepare your spring gardens, is the perfect time to be thinking about gathering plants to share. Annuals or perennials, decorative or edible—someone will want it. Bring your plants with information that includes name of plant (if known) and whether it does best in “sun” or “shade.”
