make sure your
seeds are taped up well in their lil package& is nice to lable all
growing info you know about if you have it.there are
seed templates online that you can print up and tape up or can just cut your junk mail up and do the same with just tape up and have marked.is a post in here on

when I send my addy i always include my 4 digit postal code so i know my mail gets sorted where it belongs.i make sure my addy is plainly seen.i tape my envelopes closed
on envelope or on a piece of paper included i always list what was traded for& most times even include a surprise
seed inside.they can grow or trade on.& always include e mail so they can contact
let them know you recieved trade.sometimes we wonder.i save my e mail till i know they recieved trade sometimes i will save them and on comments will state what they grow that i like for a future trade or do a latter trade again at christmas
i strongly believe in bubble envelopes for mailing they are stronger,they hold up you can cut in half and re use repeatedly.I love to trade
seeds and they grow better if travel safe.would you fly on a plane on the outside of it it?
also on stamps...do ya know that licking a stamp is consumeing 1/4 of a calorie...LOLI couldn't resist..LOL do not cover stamps with tape.the PO don't like and they don't like you re useing stamps or canceled stamps you should have your envelopes weighed or have a mail scale at home.you can get a postage chart for mailing here

plants and craft items on this also.you should bookmark.you can order stamps to be delivered to you also
