I suppose the main reason is that they take quite a while to run (about a month or so) and even longer to organize. They also take quite a bit of work on my part to put together, figure out the winners, ship prizes, etc. I'd love to do more, but I summer is a busy time in terms of tissue culture work and shipping orders, not to mention my "real work" that I have to do to pay bills. And this summer I hope to work at the local farmer's markets, so I'll probably have even less time.

January was a blur for me. I barely had time to blow my nose. I'm still playing catch up right now, but I would like to do one this month. Hopefully I'll find some time to get it organized (ask for plant donations, announce it, etc.).

Thanks for the offer bliv, but realistically I should be able to get 'er done (well, start the ball rolling at least by lining up some plants and making the announcement) in the next week or so.
