All,

I just spoke to Mary Garcia of GNS Spices.
They are picking on Mondays & Wednesdays.

Thanks to Constance Allen, Jim Black, Jack Curry,
Dan Hirschi, Alice Lamb, Daniel Laybourn
& Bill Oakes for their checks for 140 lbs. of savinas/franciscas.

We still need at least 250 lbs. for the minimum order.

The other people who have so far expressed interest
- an additional 230 lbs. - in this group purchase
- Dave Anderson, Scott Ashkenaz, Andrew Gaines,
Doug Law, Rob Lusk,  Nagaraj Murthy, Allen Pierce,
Rob Rayment, David Watts, Mark Yvanovich
- please inform me of how many box(es)
of savinas &/or franciscas you would like
and mail your checks to me as soon as you can.

The sooner we get this together, the more likelihood
of getting the early crown set (larger fruit).

I'm considering making the cut-off date
for last arrival of checks Tuesday, 9/28/99,
with a pickup date of Friday, 10/1/99,
at Driscoll Farmers' Coop, 3939 East Hueneme Road,
Oxnard, CA 93033;
Tel: 805.488.0333.

I'll arrange for Southern California buyers to meet us there
since we pay GNS Spices with one certified check.

Individuals can pickup in Northern California at the
Grey Bears' cooler at 2710 Chanticleer Ave., Santa Cruz, CA 95065-1812;
Tel: 831.495.1055. [Talk to Lynda Francis.]

For anyone else that wants to get in on this low-priced
group purchase before it shuts down until next year:

1) The orders are in 10-lb. box increments.

2) Pre-paid orders only.

3) $30 for each 10-lb. box.

~~~

Thanks to you all for making this work.
