You got to this page because you are not a member or you are not logged in.
We ask for a small monthly fee, first, this is to keep spammers and prying eyes out, and secondly, it keeps the lights on. We like to offer everything for free, but we simply can’t, we are not sponsored and are just a few people who try to get the “word” and knowledge out.
A FREE subscription gets you on your way. Plan B gives you access to posting and free courses, and Plan A allows you to make money online by creating courses.
Restrictions what are they?
Set Individually By YOU
For intended users only information. Privacy and confidential on a different level.
Subscription Level
The first layer of security is when you subscribe to one of our subscriptions, you get more access to the site. We require a minimum of our FREE subscription.
If you came here from another page then you do not have the correct membership level.
- Subscriber News Only
- Trade Shack general courses
- View Trade Shack/Exchange locations
- Access to General Member Social Group
Community Level
Each community/group has its own set of access levels. If you are not a member of that specific community you will not see the members or the activities, like discussions, files, photos or like-minded.
Edible Exchanges are set up as a community and only allow those who are a member of the Edible Exchange to see what is available and happening at the Edible Exchange. Like done on Facebook now, but we do it better.
If you came here from another page then you did not have access to that community.
