Bart and myself are going to do a test run with getting seeds into the U.S. via a new inspection system operating in the U.S. So in order to make absolutely sure this will work, I'd like to send 10 different Newbe's some seeds. I'll make sure you get 2 or 3 decent seeds with a bit of a track record, If and when these seeds arrive,they are yours to do with as you please. The weight of the pumpkin the seeds came from will be written on one side of the seed, and the initials of the grower on the other. For example is I send a 419 Pukos, it will have 419 on one side and a Puk on the other. so every last name will be represented by 3 letters, each set of seeds will also be color coded, as I have 10 different colors of Sharpies. This is just to be absolutely sure the seeds don't get mixed up. Once they have reached Bart he will send them on to you. I will have sent Bart a manifest or invoice as per say, so he knows what to expect and the break down.
So 10 Addresses emailed to me, If I receive more than 10 I will pick addresses that best represent all 4 corners of the U.S., and as an 11th, I'd like J.D. up there in Alaska to send me his address and we'll see what happens going up there. I'll send you some of my seeds to him.

Thanks Bart for doing all this ground work.

J.Jones, Water, Springwater, Pumpkinlover, please send me your addresses, I had 10 others email me so We'll just do all 14. Still like to here from J.D.
Bart, I have so many U.S. stamps that I can't use, I'll send them to ya.

Also we need to here from all of you when the seeds arrive, so we can move forward and put a time frame to the turn around.
