Default An update - tomato/pepper exchange

Hi folks,

I've had a number of people contact me wanting an update on the tomato/pepper exchange.

It's been a crazy busy year and my apologies for not posting an update sooner.

I have not yet sorted out details or timing of a potential exchange. I am travelling extensively on business this fall, and am still sorting out travel plans. I need about 2 months straight with very little travel to be able to run the exchange.

I can't make any promises just yet, and expect it will take a couple more weeks before I know what travel is like for the rest of this year.

Will update you when I know more.

Thanks...Heather

Heather,
Hope your travels go well and good luck follow you everywhere.
Everyone who has participated in your past seed exchanges has been blessed with the bounty, I'm sure they are all thinking as I am, best wishes to you.

Safe travels. Work should come before this huge undertaking and remember to leave some time for yourself in there.

Take Care,

Patti

Heather, I hope you are getting in some pleasure time to see the sights at some of your destinations. Work is important, but you time is too. All the best, no stress if you can't do the exchange. We appreciate what you have done in past years.

Good morning everyone,

I posted an update in another forum but failed to post here. My sincere apologies.

As many of you know, I normally host an annual tomato & pepper seed exchange. This fall has been an exceptionally busy year for me at work, which has included extensive travel.

I was playing it by ear on my schedule to see if/when I could host in 2013, but unfortunately it hasn't worked out. Running the swap requires a couple of months of dedicated focus, and so far this year, it just hasn't been possible.

If I am able to run a swap in the new year, I will post another update.

Thanks and have a very Merry Christmas

....Heather
