 Hello Mike, 
Count me in!  Just what I was looking for--a 
group such as this.  I have grafted over the last couple of years 
about twenty different types of cider type variety trees (combination of old 
american types such as golden russet, honey cider, taliaferro and hewes crab as 
well as some european types such as kingston black, michelin and medaille 
d'or).  Now I have to start to look for groups/people experienced in 
actually making the cider, so a group like this is perfect for me.  I'm 
located in the Shenandoah valley about thirty minutes west of 
Charlottesville.  My name is Ken Harnad.  Address is 1213 Rockfish 
Road, Waynesboro,VA  22980.  Email address is mailto:harnad@intelos.net 
I look forward to hearing again from you 
again.  Regards, ken

  Subject: [nafex] hard cider guild 
  
  A number of us- 30 or so- met about 6 weeks ago and would 
  like to put  together a national network/guild of people who make or would 
  like to  make hard cider. A model we might get some ideas from is what 
  exists  in the UK.  I volunteered to lead the organizing of the effort 
  and  would appreciate anyone who may have an interest to email me.  
  I would appreciate it if anyone who was in Lancaster Pa and signed the 
   list would also email me as many of the hand written addresses were 
   not easy to read. I have been in touch with Dick Dunn and he is 
   encouraging in his comments and thoughts. If there are any other 
   internet groups that I should contact to stimulate interest please let 
  me know. I realize that this is not quite the growing of fruit but its 
  close  and we thought NAFEX was a good place to find prospects for many of 
  us  did the natural progression from growing fruit to using it to make 
   good hard cider. Thanks Mike Tomlinson
