I got many emails from friends who attended our previous gathering if I'll be hosting the event this year. I'm looking at Saturday June 13th. Location will be at my new house in Bethlehem, Pa. Who would be interested in attending?

I created this invite to make it easy to track and see who will be attending as well. 

To view the invitation and RSVP.

I'd be interested.  I'm not sure at the moment if I can convince the rest of the family.

I would love to come too.. is it far from philly

I would also be interested.

I think I can make this one.

Possibly.  I'd really like to, but will have to check with the family.

Mike

i would love to come...
ill bring lots of cuttings for a cheap ticket. lol

I'll be bringing wine I made :)

Can't wait. Its so wonderful of you Bass to open your home to a bunch of fig nuts. Last year was great, I look forward to seeing my old and new friends

I'd be interested in coming. Will have to check my schedule to see if it's possible. Always good to see folks and pick up a few figs (not that I need more!). Plus I'd love to see your new place, Bass!

Would also be happy to chip in some money to cover pizza and/or other food costs if you go that route.

Tim

Unfortunately I will be working and unable to attend. I had a good time last year.

I will definitely be there Bass! Thank you!

Great, would love to have you guys. I'll post more details soon. June 13th at my house in Bethlehem, Pa at 11:00 There should be enough room for about 30 people. Parking might be limited, so car pooling is recommended if possible. Please bring any plant material, fig cuttings, fig trees, fruit trees, any plant material. We'll have a chance to exchange varieties, talk about figs, and gardening. If you wish to bring any food and drink items, please do. We'll accept $5 donation toward pizza and drinks.

It's coming up, so...Bump!
I'll have a couple of Unknown Attilio Purple and Green plants, my friend Scott will be bringing some citrus and Pineapple pups.
He'd love to grow Quenepas.
I'm maxed out on figs, but anyone who has a fig wish list and non-fig fruit extras (medlar, persimmon, mulberry, berries of all sorts, Paw Paw) contact me.
Bass, was there some Myrtle at your house last year that tastes like cinnamon?
I'll go for one of those.

Great, we will see you then. 
it looks like we have 28 confirmed guests. So far the weather looks good, with a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. 

I put down a maybe but, I do think I'm coming bass.thank you,jeremy

Hi All,
Would any one like to trade me some fig trees or cuttings for grape, triple crown thornless blackberry or kiwi cuttings
at the fig gathering ? Thank You :)

I'll be coming along with Chilly in Philly, we will have a few plants to share. Ruuting, I'm very much into growing citrus, do you know what kind Scott will be bringing? 

Debbies your looking for what specific variety of Fig?

Any figs Sal :)
Thank You

Debbie you're coming for the right place for fig cuttings/plants. We will have tons of plants available for trade, you know how it goes. 

Barry, Meyer and Key Lime from grocery store seed.

Too bad it's an eight hour drive for me. Have fun!

Sounds like so much fun. You guys and gals have a great great time! Wish we could make it!

Quick question.. Also maybe a dumb question

Do people wear name tags? I'm asking because forum names and real names are different.. Case in point is me.. My real Name is Eric but I use my favorite uncles name who passed away (Also my sons middle name as well as mine) If he was still alive he would have loved my new hobby.. Both Wine Making and Growing Fig trees.

I usually have stickers for name tag. I am out of name tags. If anyone has stickers or name tags that can bring it would be great.

Bringing cheese board from Wegmans--too hot to cook! And pitcher plants for Bass (they eat bugs, not cheese)!! Looking forward to learning from everyone.

I made cheese using fig sap. Will try some of that also.

Sounds good, maybe next time I can bring cocktail shi'af with homemade ashta. But way too hot and I'm too lazy to make now.

Thanks Bass

Thanks Ruuting, I have Meyer, may wanna try keylime again. It needs warm weather and i killed a couple leaving them out late in the season

I plan to bring a few friends... they tend to drink a lot though, so someone else will have to bring them home ;)

Barry, got you down for key lime. Nick, I hope you're having an easier time than I fitting all the plants you want to bring. Alright, last minute frenzy: I'm bringing a (sad) Nazarti, a K-7-11, a Lyndhurst White, an Orphan, a Diredo, 2 Attilio Greens and about 12 Attilio Purples. If anyone got Attilio Purple cuttings from me in the Fall, and they didn't make it, let me know, you get first dibs. I'll also be bringing some rooted (but still fragile) grape cuttings, similar to Valiant. Bass - make room ;)
