I know this has been done before on another site but would it be worth giving it a go here or should it be left for individuals to post personal requests for seeds?

Definitely a good idea, I'm up for splitting out different chillis for people if they fancy it, and I'll be seed saving the following this year:

Carrot Manchester Table, makes huge carrots, really good
Red Orach, can't recommend it highly enough, sowed in Feb this year, been cropping since March, easier to germinate than spinach too.
Fat Hen, took longer to germinate than Orach but useful nonetheless, good and tasty.
Lettuce Browns Goldring, a very tasty and frost hardy cos lettuce

Maybe something to do over the winter - I love poring over seed sites in the winter, and you'd have less problems with people on holidays, and more saved seeds available. I'm in, anyway.

I agree, now is not a good time as most seeds have been sown for this season. I will flag it up nearer the time but just thought it migt be an idea to see what interest there was if any
