I have just received confirmation of Tom Wagner’s European tour up to early October and then will go on to UK, Ireland and elsewhere. Does this mean his presence at the Oxford event on 17/18 October is confirmed? It is the weekend after World Food Day on 16 October that we in the UK Food Group mark each year! http://www.ukfg.org.uk

Details of tour below and from Dominique Kokopelli

October would be great for Ian and I, Patrick.

I don’t mind either way – as I can make either date.

Having Tom there would provide a focus around which the meeting could be built. My air-pot trial is for growing spuds so would fit in with a potato ‘theme’.

But then you’ve got Emma’s offer of a book reading too plus Real Seeds wanting to come. At this rate we’ll need a whole weekend!

This sounds very interesting to me as well. And October might be a good time for seed exchanging.

Hi Liz, thanks for the encouragement!

This sounds fascinating! If you are going to have the meet up in October it may also mean that my work schedule would have quietened down and I could make it to Oxford – which would be brilliant. I’ll keep an eye on your blog to see how the event planning develops.
