WE HAVE THE TOOL
**********PLEASE SEND RESPONSES TO...... brocfarm@pacific.net
We have this gathering of growers and we have the tool that can make
communication a cinch. For some of the long timers the lists are pretty
redundant. New information is scarce. Somehow I feel that we can do
better using this computer as a tool. In a attempt to take a look at any
patterns from our collective grouping. I am posting this questionaire.
Please take the time as this information maybe useful to you. Copy it and
send it to other growers the more imput the more we might pinpoint a common
denominator. PLEASE SEND RESPONSES TO ************** brocfarm@pacific.net
