North American Fruit Explorers mailing list at ibiblio

[Karen Kellogg <garuda2@comcast.net>]

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.
