Yep, I'm in Provo, and Joseph Lofthouse is in Paradise, so there are at least three Utah residents here!  ;)

Lovely.

I lived in Provo for several years but am a bit north of it now.
I miss Provo, I loved living there.

We had a seed swap at the Provo Library last month.  You may see if any libraries in your area are going to host one!  Even if they're over for the year, you may have a library with a seed library in it that you can contribute to and take from.  I'm happy the Provo Library started a seed library this year.

Great to know!
Thanks!

There was a plant (and seed) swap at Schmidts Greenhouse yesterday.

The email I got asked for registration and had a fee for table space, so I wasn't comfortable attending despite having numerous plants and seeds for trade or giving away to good homes.

If people here in Utah want to arrange something locally that is more people friendly and less commercial I am all for it.

I think we could do it at a local park in summer, perhaps Liberty Park in SLC?

Wow, a fee for a table space?  When the idea is for it to be a seed swap?  I agree with you.  Pass.

Traveling anywhere outside Provo is hard for me, but your SLC idea does theoretically sound very neat.

The five valley's seed swap in Missoula is a week from today. I plan to attend. I just packed sixty tomato seed packets of my F4 domestic breeding line #294. Thinking about packing some #339 to go with.
