Join Historic Germantown for a Plant Swap on Saturday, August 13 from 12:00 – 2:00 PM. Bring any plants, plant cuttings, succulents, pots, growing mediums, and other plant apparel that you would like to trade with other community members. This event is open to everyone, regardless of experience, and is completely free! The swap will take place outside in Market Square at 5501 Germantown Avenue, and will coincide with the Germantown Farmers Market. Vendors will be present selling fresh produce, pastries, and other goods. Historic Germantown is proud to preserve over 18 greenspaces within the community, with a network of sites celebrating History. Nature and Culture!

How does a plant swap work? Each attendee should bring plants, cuttings, or plant apparel to trade with other attendees. Tables will be provided to set up your collection so that others can clearly see what you are offering. If you see something you like, strike up a deal! This is also a great opportunity to learn more about plant care and share experiences with other plant collectors. Please, no plants for sale, just trades. Street parking is available, but please be prepared to possibly walk a block or two, as things can get a little busy on the weekends.

Email Monica for additional info.

Founded in 2021 by Steven CW Taylor, Ubuntu Fine Art is the first Black-owned, single artist fine art photography gallery in the US. Rooted in the South African term “ubuntu”, meaning universal connection through sharing, the gallery seeks to bring people together and invite the community to travel the world through photography. A native of Germantown, Taylor has deep pride in his neighborhood and through his gallery and the upcoming photowalk, asserts that it is indeed the photography capital of the US.
