Default No MMMM this year :(

I will not be able to host the MMMM this year, as I just will not have the time to do so. And doing a partial, half-hearted swap is not my way. So, the Wanted and Have trading forums are the next best option.

Thank you for all the work you have done in the past. We really appreciated it.

You could definitely use a year off

Thank you Gary for all the work you have done for MMMM. The time you have devoted and your commitment to this has been so substantial. You have been the most wonderful enabler! I am truly appreciative of your efforts. If you still want any of the nikitovka seeds from my past offer, pm me.

I also want to thank you for hosting the MMMM swap. You did an incredible job and I can only imagine how time consuming it was for you.

I remember the first year I participated in it and was totally blown away with the amount of seeds I received.

Thanks Gary for all the hard work you have put into the swap over the years. I couldn't believe how many seed packets you sent me, but even more than that, how relevant they were for my particular likes. The swap was SO much fun, and I only stopped participating because I had way too many seeds....

All the best to you,
Linda

I can only second what Linda said! I also was overwhelmed by what you sent me, so next year and perhaps even longer, I'll profit from participating in MMMM - there are too many varieties left from the swaps. Many, many thanks for all the hard work you did for us!

Thank you Gary. You are a huge part of what makes Tomatoville fun and the MMMM was a component of it, but it has more to do with you caring about others. I have good memories that cannot be replaced due to the MMMM. Receiving envelopes of seeds are only a part of those pleasant memories.
