About
The Jacksonville Seed Exchange is a seed exchange website for the greater Jacksonville, Florida area. We accept only non-GMO, preferably organic and heirloom seeds. You can request 1 seed if you have none to exchange, or 3 seeds if you mail us 5. In either case, we greatly appreciate seeds sent back when harvested in order to keep our supplies available. Please include a self-addressed stamped envelope for seed delivery.
Simply email your request to jacksonvilleseedexchange@yahoo.com and I will send it out ASAP. There is no cost right now (except exotic seeds – cacao and naga jolokia pepper, specifically).
We accept donations through Paypal. Feel free to donate the cost of a stamp (or more if you’re feeling generous) and leave a note where to send the seeds to and what seeds you want.
We will stop mailing seeds when stock gets below 4 seeds. We will keep any requests on file for when we get more in stock.
Please try to specify what species the plant belongs, as well as the source, when mailing seeds.
The Jacksonville Seed Exchange is owned and run by local resident Mike Jewett.

Dear Seeders,
I’m ecstatic. I belong to the Ga. seed exchange and the Seedsavers in Deborah Iows. I have lots of Tai Soi, a Vietnamese green that loves this climate and tastes like arugula. I’ll sends an envelope full.
Thanks for linking my page, Green Jacksonville! I have a handful of seeds leftover from the community garden. I’ll ship them, along with a few 39 cent stamps I found lying around.
Michele – thanks!! I will post the seeds’ availability when I receive them. :)
I love your site. Keep it up !
