Hi -
I¹d like to get some items this Saturday to help some RI orchard needs.
1.) Hardware cloth Kathy has two rolls; is there more available?
Westerly & South Kingstown need enough total for about 300 trees or so. Are
two rolls enough for that?
(p.s. Kathy can we carpool and I¹ll get yours then? I¹ll be coming up 146.)
2.) ³Milk cartons² - I need about 100 more or so to pot up nuts. (Jamie?)
I have enough plastic holders.
Thanks - Yvonne
