Gourds is something I've wanted to grow for a long time but I can't find any Seeds anywhere.
Cool article btw

Are you in the UK Hedgewitch? You could try the Organic Catalogue http://tinyurl.com/akpgg or Nicky's seeds http://tinyurl.com/avnj4.

I have some gourd seeds left, couple of years old and the pack has been opened so could be ok. I bought them whilst in Germany so the groeing instructions are not that usefull, unless you have a word with Ina - But yours if you want them.

[hedgewitch]

YES PLEASE!!
I'll swap you for them.
Let me know what Seeds you want and I'll see if I have it

Nice article - they are on my wish list too

[Andy Hamilton]

looks like they will have to be shared - if you both pm me your addresses I will send some off.

[Shirley]

Noooo I wasn't after hedgies freebies.... she was there first

[hedgewitch]

'Tis not a problem Shirlz, I don't mind sharing

[Shirley]

ok then - such a kind hedgewitch

Andy... want a copy of freerange mag as a swap for the seeds?? Got a duplicate copy of January's issue.

[Andy Hamilton]

Ok shilz2005, very generous I did not expect anything in return but yes if you have to that would be good.

And if anybody else needs seeds, the organic catalogue definitely has them - 3 different kinds, plus a mixed bag.

[Shirley]

no probs Andy - it was a spare copy and we were given both free at a farmers' market in Aberdeenshire.

Will post it next time we are out.
