Working with TomatoesNZ

Working with TomatoesNZ

Re-joining as a co-opted Board Member

 

It is my pleasure to announce I will be re-joining the TomatoesNZ Board as a co-opted Board Member.  I believe it presents a fantastic opportunity for me and will have benefits for covered crop growers, which include the tomato growers I consult to.  It provides another link between the board and growers.  I will be able to give first-hand information, of the many projects that TomatoesNZ is engaged with and take back, to the board, grower requests and questions.

Along with Grower2Grower I believe this will enhance the pathway for information flow directly to the growers.  It really makes sense as this is the main aim of the Grower2Grower website.

I look forward to re-joining the board and helping enhance this part of the industry, of which I have been apart of for over half of my life.  I would like to personally thank the board for this opportunity.   I look forward to catching up with you all at the next meeting.

 

I appreciate your comments.  Please feel free to comment below or on the grower2grower Facebook page:
