I was able to stop by satellitehead (Jason) place on the way to a Atlanta area Grafting/scion exchange workshop today. Jason was able to give me some nice cuttings for myself and to share at the exchange. Mike and Melinda there expressed thanks, and some other folks got some cuttings as well. I should have taken a picture of Jason and Family, but I would not have posted without consent, Couple of real cuties there. You better invest in a bigger stick than fig, because your little girl's smile is going have the young men come knocking.  Thanks again and best figs to you.

Jason is the man. I hope he is doing all good.


Where was that scion exchange?

I really like reading the stories of forum members meeting.  It always reminds me of the great people (there have been more than a few) I have met through the love of fig.

Eden,

The exchange was held in Palmetto, Ga.  It is small forum on yahoo. It is not real active, and this is the second time they have gotten together that I am aware. A similar grafting demonstration about this time last year in downtown. It is general fruit based. I gave out half a large cooler of various scion, and still have several materials left if you have interest.  Mostly pears,apples, some pluots is what I have left. The Persimmon, Mulberry, Pomegrantes were cleaned out if you want a detailed list I post one. I should have posted about the meeting here. I know we have some Newnan members and this was in their backyard. A longer drive for me from Jasper. Here is the link to the Atlanta Fruits Group if anyone wants to subscribe.   Not real active, particularly compared to F4F.  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Atlanta_Fruits/
