Potential IQF Berry Processing for Growers in IN, OH, PA, VA, WV or KY

Included in Issue:

North American Raspberry & Blackberry Association member Trellis Growing Systems recently won a USDA-AMS Local Foods Promotion Program grant to do a feasibility study for an IQF (individually quick frozen) processing facility to service Midwest berry growers. The facility would be in Circleville, OH.  They have created a survey through PollDaddy to try to determine grower interest, berry volumes, pricing, etc.

If you are a grower in Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, or Kentucky, please take their survey!   https://trellis2018.polldaddy.com/s/iqf-facility-for-midwest-berries
