Does any one know if there is a list of growers and their location. Iam off with a bad back so was going to try to pinpoint where most of the growers are. Mostly i'm trying to figure out why there aren't very many in ontario, Canada. Maybe they are just shy and only show up at weigh off than go home for another year. I just thought it would be neat to see where this hobby is most active!! Thanx

Join the GVGO and check out the website. There's lots of growers in Ontario. At least 100 serious growers. You are pretty close to Port Elgin, I hope to see you there at pumpkinfest. You'll meet lots of other growers there.

I'm not really worried about my location being known. I've got 60 kids coming from the grade 1-3 class down the street on Monday. The look on their faces when they see a giant kin is priceless. I will have to keep in mind to keep the privacey of other growers in respect!!
