For those of you thinking about coming to the meeting in Oxford this year, I’m sorry but I need to cancel. I’m planning other travel around the same time and have already done a lot of travel this year. I’m also unsure if enough people are interested this year, and to be honest I don’t really have enough speakers lined up to keep us busy an entire day.
Maybe next year we can plan something. I’m always looking for groups or people to team up with in order to make a larger event, so if anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Never mind, we need to plan something for next year.
What about an all British Isles annual get together, sometimes in Ireland. I would be happy to host it one year, and I could ask Irish Seed Savers if they would like to be involved. Madeline
Sounds great Madeline!
Shame – it would have been good to get together, but understandable if you haven’t had much interest.
Sorry I missed your post first time round – I’ve been a bit preoccupied with family matters this year.
I see a number of people on your list haven’t blogged for a while or are duplicate blogs. It might be worth trying to do something via the Blogger group on UK Veg Gardeners next time? Gives a much wider pool of people to get the momentum going and hopefully offers of help.
Perhaps a celebrity seed saver like Carol Deppe could be invited to make it a really exciting event.
That’s a really great idea Madeline! I’m going to send her an email and ask her.
That’s too bad, but I look forward to next year. Most especially if you can get Carol Deppe to come along!
