Trying to start my seed order but can’t access the site.  Does anyone here know anything about what is happening?

Not sure what is happening, Chris. I tried to access nargs.org today, to start my order and even the main site wouldn't load. Curious to know what others are experiencing, or know about what is going on.

Got to the site but when I tried to login got an error message.  Must be some sort of problem... not had a problem before logging in.

Recent post from NARGS on Facebook ....

Dear NARGS Friends, now our server has been upgraded so you may try to log on or complete your NARGS Seed Exchange order. So many people home yesterday tried to order simultaneously that we slowed and crashed. But now we have a premium server that should accommodate everyone at once. We do appreciate your patience. Thank you. –-NARGS Seed Exchange group

Yes, it took me several tries in between crashes, but fortunately my selections were saved each time so I didn't have to start at the beginning.

I was going to suggest they contact SRGC to find how to do it right, but figured that was too cheeky.

I managed to build my order, and temporarily "lost it during checkout, but was able to complete everything in short order.
