Plant give-away
A plant give-away or plant swap[1][2][3] is an event where members of the public receive or exchange plants free of charge. Plant give-aways are often hosted by local governments or organizations with a focus on the environment.[4] Some events may focus on plants native to the region,[4][5] edible plants,[6] tree seedlings,[7] or saplings.[4] In addition to giving people free access to plants, these events may also aim to promote food security,[4] build community, or boost the population of pollinating insects.[8]
