Hi Members
Well the time for the fall auction is coming up fast.
as per the GWG rules the top 5 winners will donate 25 seeds from their winning fruit to the club.We would also appreciate it if the 6 to 10 winners would donate seed also
5 or 6 seed to a pack with parentage and year marked on it would help to expedite things a lot.Send seed to
Bill Edwards
14401 Verona Rd
Marshall Michigan 49068
Glad to see so many people participating in the first year of the club. You are all winners.

I can affirm that. I put some 230 Edwards seeds away after a couple of days and noticed this morning they were getting moldy. It is a open pollination, so no big deal I suppose.

Bill,

I have some seeds heading your way tomorrow. Some are open but the better seeds are good crosses.

There is no rush here folks as Club packs will go out in Feb,I did get moldy kin seeds last year in mail,please let them dry a month or so before you pack them.I just ordered little zip locs & labels from staples to pack like Susie Zuerner does.They special ordered the baggies 12.99 for 1000.labels were 35.00 or so for 990.they will be here in a week or so I will package around Thanksgiving time. No rush.
