PHOTOS: Colorado Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association

by Pamela Riemenschneider, Feb 23, 2017

The Colorado Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association held its third annual meeting in Denver on February 21. As Produce Retailer editor, I attended as the keynote speaker.

I also checked out the buyer's lounge, where area buyers had their own tables and growers did the booth-to-booth trick or treating.

Here are a few photos I captured from the event.
