Sorry for the delay in responding.  Todd Williams of the Jourdan Bachman
Pioneer Farm in Austin, Texas may be a useful contact for you.  As part of
their historical interpretation of the 1880's, they grow heirloom sorghum
varieties and get the public involved in the sorghum syrup making process.
It is a very interesting program.  He may be reached at (512)837-1215 or
