Welcome to the peace. love. swap. blog

The peace. love. swap mission is to keep gently used baby, kid, and maternity items out of landfills and to donate to local charities by producing fun, affordable, family friendly swaps where you can get together & exchange your unwanted/ outgrown items on an regular basis.
You can find more info about peace. love. swap at http://www.peaceloveswap.com/ . You can also email Meg at peaceloveswap@gmail.com This is general info about p.l.s (peace. love. swap)- where I let people know about updates to the current swaps, new swaps coming up, and general info about swaps in general. Hi! My name is Meg & I married, live in Grass Valley, CA and have 3 beautiful kids (Christian, Milla & Lola) and one on the way. I started doing these kid's clothing and gear swaps in June 2009 in Nevada County. They were fun, rewarding and very needed. After getting emails from moms asking when I was coming to their area, I knew I had to help moms get them going in their own cities. I also knew that in order to grow peace. love. swap, I was going to need help. In February 2010, I welcomed Elle Beyer on as a partner. Elle is also a mom of 4, wife, small business owner, performer, artist, and martial arts pro. Elle found me while posting her children's clothes online, loved the idea and became a regular swapper. After the first swap, she was addicted as well, and wanted to help take p.l.s to the national, or even worldwide level. Along with Elle, I think we have what it takes to recruit moms everywhere and offer our events in different cities across the US.

No Swap for Nevada County in January

HI! Hope everyone is almost done with all of their holiday shopping. :) yeah right. If you can make it to the Rocklin swap on 12/19 there will be a special area for GIFTS (for babies & kids). I went back and forth on this a bit but have decided to skip the Nevada County kid's swap on 1/2 - It just falls too close to the holidays- the day after New Year's Day. We will resume on our normal schedule and hours on 2/6. Still looking for sponsors and/or donors to be able to reach our goal of getting a trailer to haul all of this stuff around in. If you know anyone that might be interested, please send them my way - or you can make a tax deductible donation on the website wwwpeaceloveswap.com. The segment on Good Day Sacramento was cancelled on 12/7 because of all the snow, but has been rescheduled for 1/5. If you would like to take part and come down for the "mock swap" on the 5th - shoot me an email at peaceloveswap@gmail.com and let me know. I hope everyone has a warm, safe & family filled holiday season - Hope to see you at the Rocklin swap on 12/19 - and for those of you in Nevada County - see you in February this gives you the whole month of January to clean out those closets and bring your old stuff in. : )
Until then.......
Happy Swapping!
Meg
