Re: A Tribute For Carolyn Male-Want to participate?
It seems that you haven't yet included my list, as several that I grow every year, as well as some that I have older seeds for, are not highlighted.

Great! How many varieties can you do? And, do you want to choose the ones you want?Rajun Gardener wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 5:49 pm You can send me a few of the oldest seeds and I'll get them going to pass out fresh seeds for next year. I'll send them back to you or the MMMM swap.

Re: A Tribute For Carolyn Male-Want to participate?
I see I already have Reif Red Heart and Orange Minsk on my 2020 grow list but neglected to mention it so mark me down to grow those. Once I get home I should be able to rearrange things to grow a few more if needed.

Here is the post-
So, many here want to honor Carolyn and her contribution. How about this for a tribute? In her book she highlighted 100 top favorites and several that almost made the cut, I can't think of a better tribute than if the tomato community grew out the varieties she listed and then did a mass distribution. Maybe individuals could be in charge of growing 1 or more varieties from the list. They could save seed in pkgs of 5 seeds so more packets could be distributed. It could be run sort of like an MMMM. I could keep the running list of which varieties are being grown. UPDATE-By popular demand- this also includes any varieties Carolyn offered or that she spoke about highly.
People would have a deadline to send in labeled baggies by Nov 1, 2020. A redistribution to participants and others could occur in January 2021. We could then assure some of the more obscure varieties don't disappear. Her spirit would live on throughout the world as many grow in Carolyn's honor. Experienced gardeners and site newbies welcome. Any interest? If so,please post which variety(ies) you are going to grow below in this thread.
Please let me know if I have missed any.

Re: A Tribute For Carolyn Male-Want to participate?
I just registered at this site because this grow out sounds like such an uplifting project for these times.
Some of my favs are ones others love and are already growing. But I will be glad to take a couple that are not my favorites. Yellow Pear is one. I have seed from 3 sources. Also, Plum Lemon - my seed is old but I have a lot. I will give it a wake up pep talk before sowing - and maybe try some of Carolyn's suggestions, too!

Re: A Tribute For Carolyn Male-Want to participate?
This is such a nice idea.
I'll hopefully grow Earl of Edgecombe, Manyel and Pale Perfect Purple this year. I'll plan to save and send in seed assuming all goes well!

Re: A Tribute For Carolyn Male-Want to participate?
I have looked over my seeds. Add me for Cherokee Chocolate and Hugh’s providing they germinate since they are old packs.
