The Wyndham Fruit and Vegie Swap is a group of home fruit and vege growers who sometimes have excess harvests that they'd like to share and swap with others.
When is it? The third Saturday of each month from 11 am
Where? Iramoo Community Centre 84 Honour Ave, Wyndham Vale Vic.
Melways ref: 205 A7
It works like this : Vege growers bring their excess produce along and put it on a common table and then swap it for other home grown produce on the table. It's very casual and no money changes hands. It's up to the swapper to decide what is fair.
You can swap your produce for what ever you need. You could turn your extra figs into lemons, eggplants into oranges, roses into rhubarb, or home made pickles into pumpkins. Hopefully you'll also pick up some gardening tips and have a great time while you're there.
Some things you might want to bring along - • Fresh fruit , vegetables & herbs • Seeds, excess seedlings, cuttings & flowers • Home made Jams, chutneys, sauces & home grown eggs (all dated please) • Excess clean jars and bottles for jam and sauce making.
Bring recipes, gardening tips and your good cheer. A thermos for yourself on cool days and perhaps you would like to wow us with some wonderful dish to share that you have cooked with your home grown fruit or vegetables.
