The order-picking is progressing very well, we have several large boxes of envelopes ready to post. Unfortunately there has been an unexpected problem with the franking machine and we are now waiting for a new one to arrive, and are hoping it will be delivered on Monday. We will get the envelopes posted out as soon as we can.
We have had around 20 volunteers helping each day, it has been brilliant!

Ours arrived today and, for the first time ever, it contained 100% 'first choices'! Thanks to all involved in the distribution.

Hi, today I got the seeds  ;D
Great!
Thank you to everyone who has been so committed !
Almost everything first choice  ;D

..... I find the Brexit really a shame. Because of the health certificate necessary in the future it will probably have been the last seed excange for me  :'( :'( :'(

greetings

The seed distribution finished today  - many thanks to our team of volunteers. The franking machine finally arrived today and will be in action for the next couple of days to get the remaining overseas orders posted. We ended up buying stamps for the UK orders, more expensive than using the machine, but needs must. The orders for the USA will be posted later - there is all the paperwork to do for those first.
Please do not enquire about missing orders UNTIL AFTER THE 1st WEEK IN FEBRUARY. Most missing orders turn up in the post eventually!

Seeds have also arrived to Finland safe.  :)
Thank you so much for everyone involved. This is such a great opportunity to get special seeds, I hope there will be a way to continue this also in years to come.. though I know it doesn't look good with all the new regulation.
