Andy Rollins, CUCES Upstate Commercial Fruit & Vegetable Agent
Although, I officially work in 5 counties, Spartanburg, Greenville, York, Union, and Cherokee, this year, I have assisted growers across multiple states with various research projects:
In addition to conducting trials this year, I also helped organize a commercial strawberry program from another state, held an online zoom meeting for small fruit producers, and held my commercial peach production meeting. I assisted and advertised many others’ online programs for growers. At these meetings, we shared research from the past year and any information pertinent to the industry.
The Upstate Peach meeting is scheduled for Thursday, January 20th 2022. The Upstate Strawberry Production meeting will be the 3rd or 4th week of February and the Upstate Commercial Vegetable meeting will be the 3rd or 4th week of March.
Lastly, the most important part of my job is to address growers specifically on farm problems. Much of this was and is handled in person on farms. I made every effort to abide by the safety rules set before me. I am so thankful for my job and the ability to serve upstate producers. Thank you all for your support of Clemson Extension Service.
