I agree. This forum would quickly lose value if discussion ventured into 
the realm of vegetables.

I hope many of those interested in vegetable talk will subscribe to any 
of the following forums. Like NAFEX they are also hosted by ibiblio.

Market Farming

I _manage_ this list for the other owners, i.e. handle administrative 
requests, subscriptions and the like but do not set policy, only offer 
advice. I offered to do this indefinitely after migrating the Nafex 
forum and message archives from Yahoo to ibiblio. Truthfully, I am 
honored to have had the opportunity to do that and to manage this list. 
Like the gardenwriters, permaculture, seedkeepers and permaculture lists 
this has especially proven its worth over the years.
