Bill will be having his first of several meetings on the 10th of April at 2 PM. "Bringing Fig Trees out of Storage"

Who will be attending? Maybe we can wear a ribbon to let other people know who is on the form and meet face to face.

    I emailed him for a list yesterday but he said it would be a couple of weeks before he has it together.

    I would be interested in going if other forum people are going to be there.

    I am planning a meeting for all the fig enthusiasts. I spoke with Bill and we'll probably have it at his place towards the end of April. I still don't have a clear date, most likely on a Sunday.
    I will keep you updated.

    Sounds good to me . Can anyone go ? Is there a list we can get on so we don't miss any information on the meeting? Can I buy fig trees or cuttings, if so how much ? Does he charge to attend the meeting ? Thank You . Debbie

    Does Bill post the cost of fruiting sized trees? Wish I could taste before I buy. There are so many I haven't tried, I want them all!!

    Ladygabe,

    Bill will be having several meetings. You can contact him at any time for a visit when the figs are ready for tasting. I have posted his e-mail and contact info.
    Last year they were $30.& $45. depending on size.

    Bill's seminars are excellent. I've attended several and really learned a lot from him.

    Dennis,
    I should have proof read first there should have been a coma between the Osborne,and Sicilian.
    Sorry for any confusion.

    which part of Charlotte do you live? I mean North or South?
    I would love to see your fig collection in person. I live in Surry county which is approx. 1.5 hrs from Charlotte.
    you can mail me at sujatarao2000@yahoo.com

    End of April will be great..fingers crossed the boys don't have ball games that will overlap!

    Eagerly awaiting details.

    NCA270, I live in North Carlotte. I would not recommend taking a peek at my collection. It's not that much to see. A year from now, I should have a nice collection. I will keep you posted. Dennis
