Save the Date: Champlain Valley Orchard Tour June 30

by Terence Bradshaw

Please consider joining us for a tour of Champlain Valley orchards sponsored by the UVM Fruit Team, UVM Extension Risk Management Agency, Vermont Tree Fruit Growers Association, and Cornell Cooperative Extension on June 30, 2015. Final details are still being arranged, and an agenda will be forthcoming.

Cornell Entomologist Peter Jentsch will be with us on the tour to discuss summer insect pest management.

We will begin at 9:30 AM at Hick’s Orchard in Granville, NY, then travel north to Champlain and Sentinel Pine Orchards in Shoreham, VT. This will be a self-driven, caravan-style tour. We will provide drinks and light refreshments, but please plan on packing a lunch for the day.

More details will be coming soon. RSVPs are requested, please email Sarah Kingsley-Richards with your name and the number of persons who will attend at: skingsle@uvm.edu
