Is your perennial garden overflowing? Did you start too many vegetable seeds? Or did you start some native perennials to share?  Bring your extras to trade with other gardeners.  Please label your plants.  Participants will be able to walk away with one new plant for each plant they bring.  

We hope you'll join GPL, Pollinator Pathways of Licking County, and the Robbins Hunter Museum in their gardens for a plant swap!  Registration required.

Want to incorporate native plants into your landscape, but don't have a plant to bring to the swap? No problem!  
New for 2023:  Dig up an invasive plant from your landscape and swap for a free native plant!  (No need to actually bring the invasive plant you removed to the swap, simply take a photo!)  Limit 2 per person.
