Happy 4th of July from Fresh from the Field Fridays, The Produce Industry Network, and AgLife Media!

This week, Ross is fresh back from Berry University—and he's bringing the juicy details. Plus, longtime produce pro Armand Lobato joins us as he steps into retirement (but not out of the game).

We're talking summer produce, Fourth of July picks—corn, peaches, watermelon, stone fruit—you name it. We’ve also got tips for produce managers and a peek at what’s next for Armand.

It’s all right here on Fresh from the Field Fridays.

This week on Fresh from the Field Fridays from The Produce Industry Network and AgLife Media, it’s summertime—and that means stone fruit is on fire!

Ross and Dan welcome Kevin Steiner from Mountain View Fruit to talk all things peaches, nectarines, peachcots, plumcots, and plums—yellow, white, and everything in between. The season’s hitting its stride, and the fruit is everywhere.

It’s the time of year when warm weather and fresh fruit come together to revitalize us.

Plus, we’ve got a garden update from Ross’s backyard and Dan’s backyard—because you know we’ve got our hands in the dirt too.

It’s all happening this week on Fresh from the Field Fridays—so tune in and turn on!
