[Ctyfc] Better Together

[Megan Ryan]

Hello again,

I suppose I’ll get the ball rolling here. Anybody have spare seedling plug
trays I can borrow? 128’s are great. Or if no one has any to spare and
anyone else needs some I’ll buy a 50 pack and share those. I probably need
half that.

Thanks,

Megan
