Fall Plant Swap

The City of Plymouth is set to host a free Plant Swap 4–6 p.m. September 11 at the Plymouth Maintenance Facility parking lot.

Participants are encouraged to bring perennial plants or gardening wares to swap them for new plants shared by others. To get involved, participants should place plants in pots and label them with their common names. Seeds and plant wares—books, pots, tools and the like—are also acceptable swap items.

Plant Swap participants should be on the lookout for jumping worms—an invasive earthworm species that poses a threat to mulch, plant roots and soil. For details about jumping worms, visit the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources website at dnr.state.mn.us.

For more information about the Plant Swap, contact City Forester Paul Buck at 763.509.5944.
