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.

Upcoming Events

As usual, I let too much time pass in between posts!! Elle had her beautiful baby by, Zenock, and is doing well.  I just wanted to update the blog on some new happenings.  We had our first kid's clothing & gear swap in Colorado Springs on November 14 - swap organizer Sierra Hinkle can be reached at plscoloradosprings@gmail.com - we will update you on how it went and post some pictures soon!  Also, Sameeyah Baksh is taking over the Vacaville swap. Hopefully we will have a date set for December soon.
We are looking into a new venue for the Rocklin swap -and still looking in Sacramento (although we do have a strong possibility in there: )
We are looking for a mom to take over the Marin County kids swap & would love to help some more moms get one going in their area!  It is a great opportunity for moms that already have a home based business, because once you get your swap going it's a great way to make a little extra money, and gives you great exposure for your exsisting business. Let me know if you or someone you know is interested.
I will keep everyone posted on the new locations -here and on Facebook
- Until then..
    happy swapping!
