I just wanted to drop a line on here and thank Chuck Veader. He gave my mom (Linda) a couple of seeds for me to try out here in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I have five plants going on my property and two more at a friends place in town. I will get hot and post a few photos for you to check out.
I love the site and am so excited about growing your pumpkins. :-) Thanks a million for the fun.

Amy,

You are very welcome. I hope the Northern California seeds like the weather in Virginia. Grow a big one!

Hey a another Virginia grower:welcome Amy & Linda!!

Virginia beach is great taking the grandson to the oceanfront on Wendesday for some sun and fun..

Chuck is good guy with great seeds....
we have a few growers near by (Franklin-Chesapeake-Gloucester-Richmond) and many others in the State as well.
if you need any help just yell!!!

dont forget to register your pumpkin for the state weigh-off the last Saturday in September.

we had pumpkinks fom 76.lbs to 1138.lbs last year lot of fun watching the weigh off and meeting new growers.

Chuck is a fantastic guy! He gave me a lot of seeds two years ago when I met him at Elk Grove. Top notch kinda guy!

Chuck..I am looking for a way to send you pics. I put seeds in the ground on 14 May and they are just beautiful healthy plants now. I am blessed with rich soft soil here and we are only about 40 acres as a crow flies from the back bay water front here in Virginia Beach. I sure hope I do you proud. I will keep you posted. If you have any advice I am all ears...well um...eyes I guess hehehe. Take care,
Amy
