Article: And The Winner Is...: Untitled

And The Winner Is... By Sharon Brown on March 5, 2011 Recently in Mamajack's Co-op Cubit there was an unusual contest. The participants were simply asked to write a short article about co-ops. Thinking caps were donned, words bounced, flying fingers typed and the judges judged long into the wee hours of the morning. Finally the first place winning article was chosen. Join us now as we read the winning words... » Read the article

Enjoyed the reading! and I agree :) Gardening requires lots of water - most of it in the form of perspiration. ~Lou Erickson Quote | Post #579634 (1)

Absolutely spot on. I too am amazed in the same way at this wild and wooly co-op group. Who knew it would be this exciting to buy plants?? You explained it so well, Carol.

Congratulations on your awesome, on point article!! Been a fan for a long time and love getting to try out new stuff that I could never afford at the boutique greenhouses around here and would never find at HD or Lowes. Barb, Susan and company really do a great job of trying to find us great plants/bulbs/gardening stuff at great deals. I'm in another co-op group elsewhere but have pretty much stopped ordering and stuck w/ Barb. I have drunk the KoolAid of Co-ops MamaJack's Way and like it:) Quote | Post #579761 (4)

Way to go Carol! I have to smile (but with amazement) just thinking about how Barb and Susan can possible keep their cool with all the switching, adding, cancelling, etc., etc., etc. going on. Quote | Post #580192 (6)

You nailed it Carol! And congratulations! I agree with all that Carol & everyone else has said here. To add to what All above said...... And Barb & Susan always manage to do it with a great sense of humor too. "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." Will Rogers Quote | Post #580807 (7)
