LON - Spring Meadow Nursery is a member of GWA and has participated in the
trade show for the past several years. They are listed as donating the wine
for the banquet in Vancouver.  Their toll free number, listed in the GWA
directory is 800.633.8859. Spring Meadow is a highly respected company and
Tim Wood highly respected in the industry. The e-mail listed in my address
book is  tim@springmeadownursery.com.   If for some reason that e-mail
bounces I suggest you call him directly. I sure he will want to clear the
air.
