Local Food Swap for 2012 planning underway

I have been reading alot of information on the web and on facebook about Food Swaps.  Have you attended a food swap in the past?  Looking into the logistics of setting up a food swap for the Powhatan-Goochland areas this summer.  Not only do they swap canned foods but you can swap fresh and foraged foods – there is no selling as this is not a farmer’s market.  Currently, there is a group setup in Maine that has put together a closed group on facebook which has beneficial tips in setting up a successful food swap. I have joined this group and will co-ordinate with them on some details so that we have a smooth running event. 

Once we have established the location we will set the date.  If you are interested in volunteering  or would like to attend the food swap please contact me – Sharon@hobbyhillfarm.com   In the interim, I have set up a tab for the Food Swap on the top of the page so please stop by often to see what changes and updates have been posted.
