2011 AGM Highlights

Registration

Starting at 10:00 a.m. Haskap Canada members and friends met on Saturday, March 19 at the U of SK campus for our AGM.

The morning's topics included a series of presentations covering exciting research developments that have happened over the past year, as well as current technical work on which the university is working. Dr. Bors and three of his students/co-workers presented.

Haskap Canada President Paul Mitchell and Dr. Bob Bors preparing presentations

This year Haskap Canada members were invited to make presentations of their own work in the areas of: propagation, orchards, and product development.

Thanks again to the Mitchell clan a fine lunch was served that featured haskap in everything that they served. Proceeds went to Haskap Canada.

The afternoon was spent in a formal meeting that addressed yearly agenda items, election of directors, and Haskap Canada updates and future directives.

Time for visiting among growers

It was a very worthwhile meeting with some very exciting prospects for this next year. If you are interested in any aspect of haskap, then consider joining us next year!
