Here Are Gourd Miner Mama's Favorite Gourd Links:

From Mold to Gold
As you take your gourds from "Mold to "Gold", visit my favorite sites along the way. They are well worth the visit and are handpicked by me.

This site welcomes new links. If you have one you would like to see here, please let me know at GourdMinerMama@cs.com.

CalabashConnection I am proud to be a member of this wonderful Gourd Club, the Calabash Club of Silicon Valley. Under the leadership of Gourd Author Ginger Summit, this club is the flagship of gourd clubs and has been of great assistance to me with both my club and the Zittel gourd festival.
The Caning Shop Visit my friend Jim Widess' wonderful on-line catalog of gourding supplies. In my opinion, he offers the highest quality of supplies, best service and fastest turn around time. You won't be disappointed ordering from him.
