[nafex] Pomona and Pawpaws!

The Summer 2017 issue of Pomona isgoing to be dedicated to our great native tree, the PAWPAW!
This is a call to those who have anyexperience with pawpaws to contribute a report to Pomona. Whether itbe in growing, breeding, marketing, or cooking, we hope you willshare your experience with other NAFEX members. Since our issue isonline we can include color photos, so please send those along, too. Don't worry if you don't know how to insert a photo in the text, justattach it to an email and we'll take care of the rest.
Since pawpaws are not widely grown,there's not a whole lot of information on them available, especiallywhen it comes to the performance of particular varieties in differentregions. Even if you have just a couple of pawpaw trees, yourexperience may help another perspective grower.
Jackie Kuhn, the editor of Pomona, hasrepresented NAFEX at several Mother Earth News Fairs, and she reportsshe receives a lot of questions concerning pawpaws. There isinterest out there; let's get the information out.
The NAFEX conference in Tifton thissummer will have some lectures on pawpaws. A series of articles onpawpaws right before the conference may inspire heightened interestin these lectures.
Please send articles totippingpine@gmail.com.
Of course, articles on any other topicwill be welcome
Thanks so much!
Melinda McCuan Gathering Editor, Pomona Summer 2017
