Swap! Not Shop! gets love.....

East Bay Express chose Swap! Not Shop! as a Critic's Pick for this week! Check page 20 or you can view the event here. Our last swap was also featured, and although this tiny little paragraph in this issue did not mention Homeygrown, we're happy that folks are spreading the swap spirit around!

And many thanks to Lori of Female Sneaker Fiend who posted our swap info on the site.

Check out these other blogs that help spread the word:

• MISS Crew, who Artiffact now interns for!
• Our homies Cell & LN at The Spacestation
• Homegirl Ruby of iLL-Literacy
• Certified Fresh
• MMHighlights
• Pirate Cat Radio
