Hi McPeg (alias ringleader!):
I'm game for all of the above. Most probably plant divisions more than seedlings for me. I'm also a crafter so I may have a "garden junk" bird/butterfly bath that I could make a special trade with. Are we still looking at the first Sunday in June? other date? I suggest an earlier time since its picnic with the kids?
I'll keep LeeAnne and Deborah updated.

P.s. LeeAnne and I are quilters, mags sound great!

Hi Darrylene!
I will confirm a date with everyone near the end of May...hopefully when we can see the 14 day weather forecast so we don't get rained out and to confirm folks availability.
Glad to also know there would be interest in quilting mags - I have too many that I will NEVER get to do all the projects.
Watch this thread for more updates.
Cheers,
McPeg

Hello all, is there a chance we could try to set a date sooner than the end of May? Earlier in June is probably better for plant swapping than later in June for one. Also, I'm hoping it could be the first weekend in June (2/3). Calendars have a way of filling up and I really don't want to miss out this time :-(

...bowing and saluting the mcpeg orgazination effort...

The first Sunday in June is good for me. By then I should have all my veggies planted, and sold what will sell, and should have extra leftovers to bring. And gives the perennials time to pop up and be divided.
My kids love the farm, and it makes a nice outing for them. Anyone else bringing children? Mine are two girls, 4 and 5.

Hi Everyone - I offer the following dates:

1st choice - SUNDAY, 3 June (rain date would be the following Sunday)

2n choice - SUNDAY, 27 May (rain date would be the following Sunday)

Please let me know what you think.

Also, in the event that I cannot attend due to 'family committment' (visiting inlaws.....grrrrh) - would someone else be willing to set up a few minutes earlier to establish the meeting area? (Which will be determined once the date is set).

As for kids, if we know the age group - maybe I could organize an activity for them - colouring, crafts, plant some seeds to take home or decorate a sunhat. I don't have children but I sure enjoy seeing their smiling faces.

Let me know!

Cheers,
McPeg
