Board Positions. I'm Greg Martin with today's Fruit Grower Report.

Now that harvest is pretty much done it's time for some tree fruit business. The Washington State Tree Fruit Association recently held their 2015 Board of Directors election and the results are in. Jeff Pheasant, North Independent Grower, Morgan Rowe, South Independent Grower, Gary Snyder, At-Large Grower and Jordan Matson, South Packer were all re-elected to the WSTFA Board of Directors for three year terms through December 2018.

Moving over tho the Washington Apple Commission, they are looking for a highly motivated Grower to serve out the remaining term of Position #1, District #1 Grower on the Board of Directors. Due to the recent sale of orchard holdings, the current WAC commissioner has resigned because he no longer qualifies as a Grower. The remaining balance of the term is through 02/28/2017 and interested parties must be both a Grower and have orchard properties within District #1 (I-90 North in Chelan, Douglas or Okanogan Counties). Interested growers should contact the Washington Apple Commission no later than December 4th. Those interested are encouraged to submit a letter of interest to the Washington Apple Commission.The Commission board of directors will consider all applicants and forward two candidates to the WSDA Director of Agriculture for consideration and appointment.

That's today's Fruit Grower Report. I'm Greg Martin on the Ag Information Network of the West.
