The company has promoted its senior category manager to oversee its fruit produce category.
Michigan apple growers experienced some localized frost damage in the spring but still had a great growing year.
These new members, which include Carmen Ponce of Tanimura & Antle, Chris Drew of Ocean Mist Farm and Kiana Amarel of BlazerWilkinsonGee, will serve a three-year term.
After growers faced a year of weather extremes in 2022, Washington state rebounded in 2023, increasing production by about 38% year over year, according to the U.S. Apple Association.
The university said the new cultivar — a cross of Honeycrisp with cripps pink — does not bruise and keeps its texture and flavor following months of cold storage.
