of our local forums. Why not in your area too?
(Last year we started this topic on 3/27 - wow! Snow tonight, arrrgh.)
Strawberries, raspberries, lily of the valley, daylilies, phlox, etc.
are all plants I've shared with my neighbors via my local online
community forum. Heck, I even swapped a banana tree shoot
for some outdoor bamboo last year.

It is simple, if you have plants to share - just "reply to all" via
email or add your text via the web site.
You can even attach photos.
If you are seeking various plants from your neighbors, posting your
wish list has worked great too.
http://Wikipedia.org often has great links on specific plants if you
are trying to show people what something is that you have to offer.
To see what's being shared across all our forums (and how cool
neighbors connecting with neighbors can be), try these searches:

With the idea of "community life exchange" new on many of our
neighbors forums, I encourage you to give it a try. Let's make being
connected online with neighbors is fun, engaging, and useful.
