I'm a new grower living in Bedford, NH and obtained a few seeds from folks on this web site last year.
Things were going well, even though I started late and just planted straight into the soil, that was until we had a monstrous late summer hailstorm which destroyed everything.
Was loving every minute of it and was crushed when the storm hit. However, learned a ton from this first time experience and feel I am ready for this coming year, with plans to germinate inside; plant early; protect, etc.
Looking for some seeds to get me going..?
Do not have to be anything too valuable or huge...just looking for strong, healthy seeds to produce strong, healthy plants, so I can produce something of note..!
Please let me know and thanks in advance....Scall

Thanks to everyone for your responses and your offers of seeds. I really appreciate it.!
I will be e-mailing directly to gather your mailing info, etc.

Can I get info about the NH growers group on this web site..?
Guess I should have a look first...it might be staring at me right in the face.

Actually "watched" the seed auction chat last night and found that whole thing interesting.
After 1 year I already know how this pumpkin growing thing can get a hold of you.!

Thanks for the info and did find the NH Growers Group on the web but seems like things have been quiet since the Fall weigh-in in Goffstown.
However, I will still follow-up on your lead, so many thanks for that.

Interesting that you should respond as I see your name associated with seeds and respected success in growing.
I was thinking of trying to contact you, as you live so close, to see if you would be willing to share some of your knowledge and hopefully at some point allow me to "invite myself" to your patch to see how it is really done.?

Of course, feel free to tell me "sorry" as maybe you get these requests a lot..? (Don't want to intrude).

However, if you feel you would be willing to help in really getting me started I would appreciate it.?

Does not harm to at least ask..?

Thanks again......Scall (Ian)
