Here's an idea I heard from another allotmenteer yesterday ... a pass-the-parcel seed swap.
I fill up a jiffy bag with unwanted seeds, and post it to someone, who takes what they want, and puts in some seeds they don't want (so the box stays full - put in as much as you take out). They post it to another person, and so on. Just like Pass The Parcel.
Get organised - start sorting your seed swaps before you get the parcel: It took me 2 days; & it cost £2.10 in postage
this is a good seed packet template; Seed Envelopes
I'm not including growing instructions, you'll have to Google for these.
I've put a list of names inside the parcel ... add your name to it after you've had the parcel.
Get a free Proof of Posting receipt from the Post Office: parcels have gone missing before now
Let's keep it simple, and pass it on quickly
To get on the list, just add a friendly private message to Finedon Dandy, who has kindly taken over the Admin of this thread.
