I'll be there - I can't wait.

Plants I have to share:
*little tomato plants (lots)
*some pepper plants (bell & jalapeno)
*nicotiana
*coleus
*big garden mums (yellow daisy-like bloom)

I will bring a dish or two for the potluck. I am also happy to contribute paper products or plastic forks, etc, if these are still needed so that burden is not just on a few people. I think some have already volunteered to bring name tags and trash bags. Let us know what else we need.

Thanks!

Someone said they were bringing the trash bags.

I said I was bringing the trash bags. I think I will make a pasta salad, put it just depends on what I am in the mood for that day. I am sorry I won't be able to stay to help with the grounds I have to go to work later that night so I will need to go take a nap. I don't know what all plants I will be bringing, I don't have a lot of any one thing just a little of this and that. I do know that I will be bringing:

I guess I need to be there since I have the keys and alarm code to the church. Probably have my wife and two "kids" in tow as well.

I'll be covering the Iced Tea, Lemonade, Water and manning the Popcorn Machine.

Will also be bringing some home-mande "adult beverages" of the vino persuasion: Fig, Cranberry, Blueberry, Blackberry Merlot, Raspberry/White-Zinfandel, "Calypso Bianco"... and perhaps elderberry, if it's finished in time.

Fig cuttings; Chicago Hardy, Lattarula (Italian Honey) Peter's Honey, Desert King, Quantico, Jacks Quarter Pounder, and a mix of unidentified but delicious varieties I took cuttings of up in Covington this past January.

Grapevines: Foch, Cayuga, Chancellor, Reliance.

Elderberry: Johns, Nova, Adams, York

Lots of other seedlings started

Specifically for installation into the church grounds:
(Placed the order this past Friday afternoon)

1 Austin Dewberry
1 Heritage Raspberry
1 Southern Bababerry Raspberry
1 Nectar Boysenberry
1 Grenada Pomegranate Tree
1 Black Old Fashioned Muscadine Vine
1 Black Spanish Southern Wine Grape Vine

And anything else I have left-over at the end of the day.

I have heard from two others in e-mail that are coming. I am planning on 50+ on my end. We maybe suprised at how many do show up. I figure I will keep some extra plants-seeds in the car just incase.

I'm a Tipton County Newbie to this forum - I plan to come to the plant swap but alas I don't have plants! I just moved (in the fall) into a house with lots of places for gardens, and not even a single flowerbed on the place! atokadawn is helping the cause with her driveway of mulch lol. I will bring a dish or two and a bunch of walmart bags - the only plants I have are wild onions I'm afraid!

I'm 90% sure I can show up! Sorry but I don't have anything to bring for swapping. But I'll be bringing something yummy and full of calories. I look forward to meeting you all!

I'm so happy and excited for you guys! Best of luck and if I can do anything to help just let me know.

Anything you can do?????? You could bring your smiling self to join us big orange!

I'd love to but I've kinda got my hands full right now with the MTPS and my business taxes. I'll be there with you guys in spirit though.

Add 3 more that have e-mailed me. For some reason, the site will noy let them post.

Hurrah! I can't wait to meet all of you! Sandsquid, I 'll happily dig in the trenches for a taste of your blueberry wine. A friend of mine works for Wild oats/Whole foods and had to go to Florida. She brought back a lovely blueberry wine that alas, can't be found near abouts. I will be making a 13x9 casserole, not really sure of what. Also a fruit salad.
Plants I will be bringing:

Rudbeckia
sedum
purple iris rhizomes
wild columbine
couple of fans of Autumn Red daylily
same for an unnamed yellow daylily. This one is fragrant!

For those of you who don't have plants...good for me! You can have all of mine!

All-righty! I'll bring some plastic forks/spoons/knives too.

>> I 'll happily dig in the trenches for a taste of your blueberry wine.

Just a taste?-) I was hoping to get rid of a few _bottles_!

This year, I made 6 Gallons of Blueberry, 7 Gallons of Cranberry, and 3 Gallons of a 60%-Blueberry / 30%-Cranberry blend, 5 Gallons of Elderberry, 3 Gallons of Key Lime, well the list goes on and on..... but I am running out of empty bottles.

If anybody has any empty wine bottles, I offer a 6:1 exchange.

hey Sandsquid I have 10 empty bottles in my garage. You are talking about used bottles aren't you?

Mary

Hey this is AtokaTeddy, and I will be coming with AtokaDawn. Looking foward to meeting every one. Would anyone have a Tulip Poplar tree. I would really like to have one.

Yes, empty wine bottles of any type,
and "import" type beer bottles (not twist-tops)

Mary

John, you checked with the VFW to see if they would hold the bottles for ya? They did for me as long as I did a pick up once a week.

Hey Atokadawn, Save me one of those Pussy Willow trees......Jackie
