The newsletter looks great! Thanks Sally! I got a good chuckle out of Sue Vincent's "You Know You're A Pumpkin Widow When" top ten. Great idea!
Very informative Q&A's with Ron Wallace and Chris Delaney plus loads of other good information to digest over the winter.
The Big Momma Growers Contest should be fun next season. The goal of this contest is not only to encourage all members to donate seeds to the membership seed packs but to grow them as well. All participating GVGO members have a shot at winning some cash in this contest.
Cheers Pat

55 Pages. Wow. It's more closer to a magazine, than it is a newsletter, only without a lot of advertising. Great Job Sally & also to all those who contibuted articles. I'd like to thank Ron Wallace, Chris Delaney, Carl Graham & Quinn Werner for taking the time to answer all the questions honestly & in a timely matter. These growers are also supporting us with seed donations. Thanks guys. We appreciate your efforts.

Yes, great job and I'm still reading tidbits from it so that it sinks in, I have a problem though as I can't fit 4 of those cabbage support thingies in hiding as I'm suppose to be building office furniture for my wife right now - Must work on this as you can never get this type of patch prep/structures done too early!!

I LOVE the new "Big Momma" contest. It should be better for everyone involved and really increase the interest in the GVGO membership packs. Great decision!

Awesome idea for an alternative to the SOTY. Love it.
