Fruit Growers Virtual Happy Hour
July 20, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Free
Join the North American Fruit Explorers for a special Virtual Happy Hour for fruit growers, Wednesday, July 20, at 6:30 PM CST.
It’s hot and the bugs and diseases are keeping us up at night, so let’s take a break, drink something cold and connect with fellow fruit growers!
Preview the New Fruit Tree Pedigree Explorer
NAFEX member Eric Bina has developed an exciting visual tool for representing the parentage and pedigree of various fruit trees utilizing the extensive SNP DNA database and other publicly available data sources.
Eric has created two databases to date, one for apples and another for pears, which he’ll preview on ZOOM.
What are You Growing and How is it Going?
We’ll also share what’s happening in our orchards, farms and gardens, talk about the challenges of this summer’s weather, and share fruit growing successes and epic (but relatable) failures.
The meeting will start on ZOOM or by phone at 4:30 p.m. PDT / 5:30 p.m. MDT / 6:30 p.m. CDT / 7:30 p.m. EDT.
Bring your favorite beverage and a story to share!
