Strawberries and Caneberries

In person meetings are definitely becoming a thing!! Research partner California Berry Cultivars (CBC) is holding a field day this coming May 3 and asked me to help in getting the word out.

Nice article this morning in the Wall Street Journal about the Oishii strawberry, grown indoors in New Jersey and making some waves in the retail markets out East.

All: See below, we are looking for someone to work with Central Coast growers on implementing on-farm technologies. More positions in entomology, forestry and youth to follow.

Interesting article unearthed during this morning's Twitter scroll on how a company in Newark will be starting commercial production of strawberries vertically farmed in a warehouse.

I found this very informative piece the other day while doomscrolling on Twitter. This is out of the periodical Foreign Policy, and addresses a very rapid conversion of an entire country to organic agriculture, and the subsequent upset to its economy: https://foreignpolicy.
