Hello! Some of you already know... I'm going to be working at an internship in West Chicago this summer, starting around the end of May, for 3 months. So I wanted to make a list of Illinois growers in that area, so I could do some patch visits, or maybe participate in any activities you guys do in the summer. I might even pull a few weeds or bury a few vines if you're lucky. So where and who are you, Illinois?!

Brigitte, I was impressed with the Central WI growers meeting a couple of weeks ago. We would welcome that spirit to the Land of Lincoln. I"m sure we will make you feel welcomed this summer. Maybe we can persuade you to trade in the yellow and green for navy blue and ORANGE.

George, I will be doing some plant production research at Ball Horticultural Company. That's neat that you work in the same spot!

ever hear Brigitte talk? She is green and gold for sure, crazy accent she has. I dont think that piercing in her tongue helps either.

Brigitte: I'm not too close by, but, Hoffman Estates, about 20 miles NE of West Chicago. North on Rt. 59 until you hit Rt 72 and then east about 10 miles - close to Woodfield Mall. It's about 40min drive from W.Chicago. Come on over for lunch and pumpkin talk (crazy accents accepted)!
