I too am on the list but am no longer a paid up NAFEX member. As I get older
my interest in fruit growing grows but my income shrinks; I would pay dues
if I could. I love the information and exchanges on this list, even about
things not suited to my space or climate. I would hate to loose the benefits
of this list to the forum, as I wouldn't be there.
