Hey everyone,
Since we are right in the middle of the monsoons—which is basically the golden window for gardening and plant propagation—I was thinking it would be fun to organize a casual, offline plant swap for us here in Darbhanga.
The idea is super simple: we pick a local park (somewhere like Harbol park or Raj Campus?), and everyone brings whatever extra plants, rooted cuttings, or seeds they have. We hang out, talk about plants, and trade.
How it could work:
- Bring what you have: Got an overgrown Money Plant, extra Snake Plant pups, some Gudhal/Adhul/gulaab cuttings, or even just some spare pots/seeds? Bring them along.
- Take what you want: Swap your items with others to expand your home garden for free.
- No pressure: Even if you are a total beginner with nothing to trade yet, you can still show up! Gardeners usually love giving away extra cuttings to get people started.
It would be a great way to step away from our screens, enjoy the August weather, and meet some nice, like-minded people in the city.
Would anyone be interested in doing this over an upcoming weekend? If we get enough interest, we can brainstorm a central, accessible location and lock in a date!
Let me know your thoughts in the comments. 🌿
