Really enjoyed pod cast. Our spinning guild had Joan Ruane as a speaker. Wondered if you were aware of her and her spinning and growing organic cotton. I believe she is in Arizona but don’t remember where.

Thank you all so much for this amazing opportunity. A listener from Texas has already contacted me with a gin for sale and my old friend Cameron Taylor Brown sent greetings with compliments!! Our network is growing and our confidence as well as we learn our way forward!
