Hi Everyone, I havn't talked to most of you here on the forums but some of the names sound familiar. I have been hoping for some local acquaintances, this sounds wonderful. I only have veggie seeds, well maybe a couple of flowers but I am still a novice when it comes to flowers. I just want to meet some local folks who love gardening as much as I do. We currently have a 1/2 acre veggie garden that we have been working for 4 years now. In two weeks we are having another 1 1/2 acres cleared for more veggies and a section for grapes. Don (my wonderful hubby) is also building me a lean to greenhouse on a new garage that is being built this week. Can I bring mostly veggie seeds? Thank you so much for organizing this. See you all then. Susan in Stokes county

Hi Lisa, I will take some vegies but since I am gardening in raised garden boxes, I can't use corn, squash, and large watermelon that take large areas., But if they are bush v vegies, beans, etc. that would be ok. Thanks Lisa, Ellie

Hi All, I got the pkg. ready to go to Beth DC #0305 1720 0002 5542 3155. I'll be going to the post office this afternoon. I took out 16 pkts. and added 120 pkts. So all you ladies will have a good start to the second go round. I ran out of paper pkts., so thank you to whomever put some in there because I used them : ) I took the garden book, thank you to whomever put that in there. The life preserver wall hanging came to me broke, but it can be reglued so I left it in the box. I added a few goodies including Kleenex, lol. It is a good box cushion/filler! I still have hardly made a dent in the case Gary won. Remy
