Please join us for a second season of Virtual Orchard Meetups in June-July 2022. In 2021, we launched the Honeycrisp Virtual Meetups, a series of four webinars connecting industry members across North America, which included over 20 specialists and 1000 participants. Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback, we will be offering a second season in 2022.
This year’s theme will be Orchard Efficiency: Labor and Technology. Webinars will showcase growers and other specialists leading the development of these aspects of the industry. We will hear about their experiences managing the current challenges and participating in novel solutions.
Webinars will be conducted live on Thursdays at 7:00pm (EST) on June 2, 16, 30, and July 14. The format will be an open discussion and in a very inclusive virtual format. Each webinar will last 90 minutes. The program is free of charge.
