Some people may be interested in coming to the swap, but are uncertain of what to bring. Here is what was swapped at our last event:

• Fresh produce 
• Sauerkraut 
• Fresh and dried herbs or herb products such as  (that rocked Meg!) 
• lemon verbena syrup
• Canned beets
• Homemade cordials
• Frozen chicken breasts
• Homemade scones and breads
• Homemade noodles
• Soup mixes
• cornmeal

• raw milk yogurt
• and more!

Please, please label all your products. By label, we ask that you list all the ingredients and your contact information such as name and phone number. Swappers may want to contact you after the swap for cooking instructions or allergy questions.

Attention All Local Producers!
If you are a farmer's market vendor in the Columbus area, we want you!  Bring your mislabeled products or leftovers from market to the swap. I know you don't really want to take those extras home and we'd love to trade with you. If you know of other farmer/producers who may be interested, please invite them to participate. If they RSVP and we know they are coming, we will wait to begin the swap until after they arrive.

Wow, I'm so excited about this upcoming food swap! I love fall and the bounty it offers. I hope you can make this month's City Food Swap. The variety is looking very promising.
