In an effort to educate consumers about the importance of international trade and retailers, the Washington Apple Commission has launched a series of videos.

 

The series is divided into nine segments highlighting Trade, Technology, Food Safety, Journey of an Apple, Marketing Washington Apples, Integrated Pest Management & Organics, Lifecycle of an Apple Tree, History of Washington Apples and History of Varieties and a full documentary encompassing all topics.

 

“There’s no better way to tell the story of Washington apples, than to show it. The scenic hills blanketed with precise hi-density apple orchards, automated technology in the packing facilities, and most importantly the dedicated individuals growing the apples who are committed to producing the finest fruit possible,” says Toni Lynn Adams, Washington Apple Commission spokesperson.

 

Funding from the USDA Specialty Crop Block Grant program was used to fund this outreach effort.
