Fall Plant Swap
Sun, Sep 27 · 2:00 PM EDT
Charlotte Mecklenburg Library - SouthPark Regional, 7015 Carnegie Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28211, USA, Charlotte, NC, US
Registration Required on the Library's website: https://cmlibrary.bibliocommons.com/events/6a6b65b7f4e5db3d00c558c5

Are you a green-thumbed plant parent? Join us at SouthPark Regional Library for a Plant Swap, where plant lovers can come together, meet each other, and exchange plants, cuttings, & seeds.

How does our plant swap work? Each attendee brings plants, plant cuttings, and/or seeds to share with others. New to the plant world? Bring something simple like some succulent cuttings or babies. Plant enthusiasts — bring some of your special stuff to share with the rest of the collectors. Remember that everyone is in a different place in their plant journey so be prepared to chat, trade, & learn. Learning is half the fun (ok, collecting is half the fun).

Any donations of seeds for our SouthPark Seed Library are always greatly appreciated as well!

***This program is NOT drop-in; please plan to arrive at (or a little before) the start time and stay for the hour.***

Trades only; no plants for sale.
