That would be the TIRA - The International Ribes Association. I've not
heard from them in so long I thought they had gone under. If you or anyone
else knows where to contact them, I'll include them. I know a member, but
he doesn't have e-mail.

>>meetings.
>> Now there are regional NAFEX groups that make it easier for members to
>>get
>>together with fellow fruit explorers. Additionally, there are allied
>>groups
