Does anyone grow gourds? I am looking for some kettle gourds or other large type gourds. I paint and craft these and I am running out of my favorites. I have plenty of the apple gourds and others that I paint. I love to make birdhouses as well as other crafts from gourd. Please contact me if you have any gourds!

Just the other day someone submitted a post about growing your own gourds.
I just did a search on thriftyfun and found this information.

seems like i saw someone selling them on ebay, not sure it was back before halloween though. also, if you have a local radio station in your town that does a 30 minute show where people sell there items you could call in saying you wanted to by some.
Try this link- there are growers listed as well as state societies where you may come in contact with other artists near you. www.americangourdsociety.org/
Here is a website where you can order boxes of dried gourds.

I started growing my own about 2yrs ago, but before that I bought them on e-bay. You might also check online for your state's gourd society.
I have gourds if you are interested, they are almost ready for harvest, I can ship them to you, as soon as my daddy gathers them. You may call me 910-452--2917 or I can call you or email. I would be glad to send them to you. Also have the long leaf pine cones 4 to 8 inches. I was asking 50 cent for the small and 1.00 for the 8 in. They are pretty. Thanks, Janet Wilmington, NC
