> Plantcycle, started in November 2010, is an Ithaca, New York,  
> community-based, grassroots group whose mission is to  share plants,  
> seeds, tools, advice, servics and ideas.  It’s free to join. We’d   
> like to thank Freecycle, upon which Plantcycle is based.
>
> Joining is simple: just go to the  signup page and subscribe to the  
> Plantcycle email list. Then, you will receive by email all the  
> offers and requests that other Plantcycle members have sent out.  
> When you have a need or something to offer to others, just send an  
> email message to “share at plantcycle.net” and all the other  
> subscribers will receive the message. We’ll see how it goes; if  
> there are a lot of messages daily, we can each switch to “digest  
> mode” and get all of the day’s offers and requests delivered in one  
> message. (You can set up digest mode by going to the signup page and  
> log in at the bottom of the page.

> Plantcycle was not designed to host commercial transactions, and  
> while we’d like to keep the exchange of plants, seeds, tools, etc.  
> cost-free, we also understand that there might be minimal costs  
> associated with some transactions that would greatly benefit  
> members.  For instance, if someone wants to rent  rototiller for a  
> week and needs to share costs, such a posting is within the  
> mission.  If someone wishes to bulk order seed or plants, or has  
> information on very low cost items, or incredible sales, again,  
> such  postings are within the mission.  Even if someone wants to  
> trade labor for plants or food, this is within the mission of  
> sharing community resources.  The administrator will step in if  
> members complain about certain postings, or if it appears that  
> postings are not within the organization’s mission.
