Aw, bummer. Do you go to many conventions?

I stayed home to hold down the fort- virtual and physical!
You did a great job, ATP stayed put!
In all seriousness, though, I completely understand. With so much going on, it must be tough to just pick up and go somewhere for a day.

As for what it meas to sponsor the site- ATP runs entirely off of ad revenue- we do not charge our members a fee. However, if ATP is to be around, we (Dave and I) have to have an income We generate revenue via advertising. Usually, we use Google Ad Sense, but we are moving toward company direct advertising. We have always loved hooking our favorite gardeners up with our favorite gardening companies- win/win for everyone
Thank you for the explanation! I have always wondered how the site pays for itself and I
have seen the ads and, of course, knew that must generate
some amount of revenue to keep the site going, but I didn't know if that was the primary source. It appears Victory Seeds sponsors...tomatoes? Is that right? I'm not sure if I've run across other sponsors, though...not yet, anyway.
