West Texas/New Mexico HeirloomTomato Growers (WTNMHTG)
I'd drive 5-6 hours ( 400-500 miles)twice a year in the spring and fall to meet with my fellow tomato growers out here to "speak tomato" and tell tomato "war stories". trade seeds, seedlings, and eat some good food I'm sure.
I live about 100 miles nw of El Paso near Elephant Butte Lake in NM. Maybe Mischka or Garrett could compile a list of member e-mail addresses in TX and NM for use by the group so the Tomatoville member list couldn't be spammed. Anybody else here in TX or NM interested in forming such a group?? PM me if you are. Regards, Spud |

Live in western Colorado and trying to raise tomatoes for sale. Grand ★★★★★★★★ area.
Spud how do you lick the curly top virus there?? Or you don't have it?? Weather was not for growing tomatoes last year and had the CTV again. N Mex line really in not all that far from me. But checking map you are way too far south. I have read where N Mex has it in peppers and not sure what part of the state. I know clear down in the s w corner of Colo. |

Bill, while I won't make any sort of firm commitment (we are ~10 hours apart), please keep me in the loop. My MIL lives in La Luz and I fly in to see her several times a year, so I might be able to juggle the scheduling a bit.
