OK. We have completed the 2005 Veggie Exchange. I am sure you guys will be pleased with the variety we were able to come up with. Thank You to the other growers that took the time to send in their seeds. I personally look forward to beating Clarence in the Long Gourd Category in 2005. Grow em big and remember to pollinate a few for next years exchange. Thank You again...Shannon

Missed you at Niagara? You were one of the 1st to offer me seeds to get me going in my first growing year. Since then things have been great! Thank you so much! I did send you some of my better pumpkin seeds, did you get them?
Anyway I was looking to ask around for anyone who had Giant Veggie seeds, other than pumpkin, if they would be willing to send some my way. I have joined the Vermont Giant Vegetable Growers Association and became their Webmaster & take care of the email also.
I am putting on an exhibit soon to try to get new people to become part of our group and learn to grow Giant Veggies. Do you have any seeds left to spare from the seed exchange? I do not have any to trade this year but next year I could send you some from the best fair entries we have.
Thanks so much again for being a part in getting me going!
I have sent a note to your email too.

G if you look in Paragraph 3 subsection 2.1 of the Long Bean rule book. 3.2.1. A bean is a bean. Unless it is a pea. Which I believe these Long Beans are...lol

The 4.3 foot Long Bean was a couple years ago right?....Would that make it a has-been?

Cornwall UK.(50N 5W)300ft.

If it was grown by mr.Bean and he took it to bean town for the measure off it would be Beans Bean been to Bean.
