Very special thanks goes out to Barry & Robin Shrum and Apple Valley Scale Company.without Barry & Robin the weigh off would have been a flop..Barry made a special trip late last night to bring us a scale for the weigh off.
Robin kept track of weigh off results and helped with the VGVGA table .
cannot thank you both enough.
how about Dustin Price first year grower right out of the block coming in 2nd place 796 !!!
Tom your 893 did well in Virginia soil
How about Kreig O'Bryant year in year out the best grower in the State.
Sam your 1178 Likes Virginia soil also
I lost by one vote to my good friend Mark Fowler---------
Mark won the best looking MC at the state fair-----not fair i had a bad hair day :)
Mark did a awesome job as MC. without him it would have been one boring time...
very special thanks goes out to Jennifer Ross & Ruth with there outstanding help and support the weigh off went off without a hitch.

Ed (Mr.D&Me) and Mark (hootsdirt) did an awesome job emceeing the event this year. You guys kept the crowd involved & interested between the weighing. Great job! It was great to meet all of the Virginia growers. My family and I can’t stop talking about how friendly everyone was. We have a great group of growers! Looking forward to next year already.
