I found your site to be both different and rich in information. Though I myself have no particular interest in agriculture, I found it quite refreshing to find a site on a topic that isn't treated much anywhere. (I receive a number of nominations each month - some wonderful, others quite the contrary - and it seems that most of them are the same topics again and again.) I am pleased to present you with Gloriana's Class Act award. I'm giving you the distinction of having the award presented in memory of my late father - who had a respect for produce bordering on reverence. His own father was a tenant farmer (Southern Italy), while dad was a grocer. He'd be so happy to know that so much concern is being given to trees - and I'm saying that with humour but not without truth! I know well how much the human race depends on produce. Warm regards-           Gloriana - Elizabeth G. Melillo, Ph.D.
