Yes its true, the ever fantastic and rarely too exciting, lineup changing (well maybe not), goofy and all around entertaining Crazy Seed Trade... Here is what is up this time...
1 725 Richart 1996 567 Mombert x 845 Ciliberto
1 854 Emmons 1997 567 Mombert x 1006 Greer
1 723 Mombert 1997 567 Mombert x 449 Marcellus
1 698 Kuhn 1998 1006 Greer x 490 Donkers

One each from my 2007 crop
1400 Hester    1068 Wallace    897 Hester
1348 Hester 1370 Rose    1068 Wallace
1257 Hester    898 Knauss    845 Bobier
1100 Hester 897 Hester    898 Knauss
1012 Hester 842 Eaton    898 Knauss
953 Hester 818 Hester    898 Knauss
873 Hester 1081 LaRue    898 Knauss
800 Hester 1104 Hester    1068 Wallace
734 Hester 886 Hester    898 Knauss
720 Hester 757 Hester    898 Knauss
684* Hester 848 Mackenzie    898 Knauss
673 Hester 842 Eaton    898 Knauss
651 Hester 821 Hester    897 Hester

You know the rules, don't behave, have fun, and open your attic and garage. You never know what might do the trick (unless you have a 1450 or 1068 Wallace, then you might win outright)

Gotta love this.. Crazy seed trade is getting to be like a tradition here. The saying is that the way to a mans heart is through his stomach. lets see if it is also the key to his seed bank.
ok here goes
1 16oz jar Amish peanut butter. (best peanut butter in the world)
1 Sausage roll. (Amish made bread with sausage, and cheese baked inside, slice and toast like bread mmmm mmm good!)
1 chocolate peanut butter cream pie. (also Amish made)
If you knew Amish cooking the contest would already be over but everyone deserves a chance.
as an alternate if you dont like chocolate or peanuts how about a dutch apple pie?

O.k....I will send you some worm poo that I am harvesting this weekend. I can make you a CD of queens greatest hits. Used bubble packs. Some 35 for $1 pens that write better than bics. Ans a "santas wroshop" Ohio state santa thing-ma-bob ...sorta like a nut-cracker type thing, but its mouth dosn't move and it is holding a OSU teady bear and wearing a OSU sweater.

OK Brett, besides pumpkins I don't know what makes you tick so I'll offer a 1990-1991 NHL Hockey album, exactly like this one offered on E-bay ( not by me ) sorry for the long link. 114 cards in all, never touched, mint condition, featuring all of the players in both All Star uniforms and team uniforms + team photos. Players like Gretzky, Lemieux, Yzerman, Robinson, Chelios et al in their prime. Given to me in 1991 from a Kraft rep in my previous life when I ran a grocery store.

Wow the competition is getting intense I better up the anti. So here goes
your choice of Limited edition ten dollar gaming token
1 one oz .999 fine silver with gold leaf outer rim and edge (rim plus about 1/4 inch inward) These have to be won you cannot buy them. You had to win them from special slot machines but each is worth $10 at the minting casino. Of course now that silver is over $10 per oz they probably don't make them anymore. They are in a hard plastic protective case. I have one from
The Gold Coast
Binions Horseshoe
Excalibur
Luxor
Stratosphere
You can choose which one you want
2 since gpp had a small worm poo harvest and I am not above plagiarism I will add two gallons of worm poo. I have this on hand so to speak.

So here I am,
A merchant of cucurbita madness
OF MIRRORS,
of sand, blackbirds, and
berries
a peddler of dreams
for celebrations and birthdays
And
surely I have
in my bags or my boxes,
in my chests or my cases,
or hidden away in the back of my shop
Surely I have
a marvelous marvel,
a sheer folly
to tempt you.

Here are a few items for you to mull over: A good luck charm in an old bamboo flyrod, with half a dozen hand-tied flies, and a bottle of wine (if one doesn’t bring you luck, the other just might). Or, in the right hands a Panasonic 8-Track player could stir up a memory or two. I’ve heard it once said that the best trade is something unexpected; for instance, an army parka, a Guinness t-shirt & Beck’s Beer necktie. And, something even more surprising like a snow globe from the cult classic Fargo and a vintage Schlitz beer can lighter. Though I bring no food to tempt you, perhaps you’ll be intrigued by my eclectic offerings.

Brett –

If I had any input in the decision making process I’d select ‘BS Brent’ if only because he used correct spelling, punctuation and syntax. It was a great poem too.

1 Liter grandma enggy's liquid humic acid (new and unopened)and the worlds smallest gardening shovel (measures approx. 4" tall by 1" wide) perfect for those small gardening projects, like measuring out myco for burying vines.

4/3/2009 3:38:56 PM

Dresden, Ohio

An ad, banner or text, on my site. It will be on this page, http://www.mygiantpumpkins.com/Giant_Pumpkin_Seeds.php, first spot under where it says "Are you looking for giant pumpkin seeds? Here are a few options:"

And I'll throw in a small Longaberger Basket(hand-woven right here in Dresden, Ohio). You can google Longaberger to see what some of them look like.

Homemade and self- distilled, produced of handpicked Herbs from the Swiss Alps, apples from the sunny Rhine valle and water from the Black Forest! - I have no idea how to get it through the customs, but I will try.

After a long delay, trying to choose this time was a pain as Julie got to have a look, the choice has been made. I really like the poem and all the great offers, this is definately one of the best crazy seed trades ever, but the winner is HAPDAD, and when Julie saw the Luxor coin, the poem and 50 pounds of worm poo took second seats. HAPDAD, please email me at bhester@apmportland.com or pumpkinguru@canby.com Thank you everyone, this gives me inspiration to go ahead and do one more......this year.
