Lee, you have mail. I have contacted a few growers about a weighoff in Cullman,Al. One of our state universities has contacted me about sponsorship along with the state cooperative system. Would like some feedback as to the idea.

Cullman,Alabama is seeming like a rather central location. It is rather easiy accessible via interstate from lower/east TN and easy enough for ms/ga/fl and the rest of Alabama.

I think the key would be to find a unique location in the greater cullman area that can gain acess to a scale and the appropriate equipment.

Definitely have my interest. TGPG has not moved much lately. Cullman is closer than Allardt for me.

Cullman has the largest wood post & beam constructed farmers market pavillion in the south. You can google it : Festhalle Market Platz. That's where they are trying to have it. The scale and equipment will be taken care of by the entities I described earlier. If anybody needs any further questions you can email me at address through BP.

I'll try to be in chat, but I was hoping for somewhere more like Atlanta, Ga. All roads lead there. Cullman would be about the same for me to go to Bear Hollow, and the distance has kept me from going there so far..... But I'm just one person. If needed, and the location is negotiable, I'll supply scales.
