Dear Growers

Here's a chance to see the gardens of some of Ontario's best giant pumpkin & vegetable growers. All are welcome to attend the GVGO's 2nd Annual Patch Tour to be held on Sunday Aug. 20th. The tour starts at 9:00 am at the gardens of John & Chris Lyons (World Record Long Gourd-116 5/8" & PB Pumpkins of 1130 & 1100#), Phil & Kathy Joynson (PB Pumpkin-Official-988#, Unofficial-1175#), Wayne Kennedy (PB Pumpkin-1088#), Phil & Jane Hunt (PB Pumpkin-1011# & PB Watermelon-207.6# Can Record), Norm Craven (PB-Pumpkin 1042# & holder of many records for the other giant varieties). The tour is free for all GVGO members, but there is a $5 charge for lunch per person. We will be having a BBQ lunch at my house, with ribs & chicken on the menu. To register, please email me at [email protected] or phone me at (705)-887-4835. We really need to know how many people will be in attendance, so please register early. You can pay your $5 the day of the tour, so no need to send in any money now. Tour is open to all. We look forward to seeing you there. Now all I have to do is grow a big pumpkin & keep my garden weed-free. I wish it were that easy. Email me if you have any questions.
