Re: Rochester, MN status
Dave, you must have the itch bad. Seems alittle early to get going for us
folks in MN, must be shooting for the state fair? I'm envious though. I'll
be moving down the road this summer so I've decided not to plant this year
and I'm going cold turkey for a year. It'll be up to you southern MN growers
to keep us in the running again this year. Best of luck, Pumpkinpiper
