All sessions and workshops offered in the education programs of the Great Lakes Fruit,
Vegetable and Farm Market EXPO and the Michigan Greenhouse Growers Expo will be open
to all attendees (except for the OFA Crop Management Workshop for greenhouse growers
that requires a separate registration fee). A multitude of topics will be covered in
presentations by university researchers and extension specialists from Michigan State
University and many other universities and research stations across the United States
and Canada. There will also be presentations by growers, farm marketers and others
involved with fruit, vegetable and greenhouse production and marketing.
Session Summaries
Speakers in each education session have been asked to submit a brief summary
of their presentation. Copies of the presentation summaries will be compiled
by session and distributed during each session. The summaries will also be
posted on the EXPO’s website (click here) after the EXPO.
Educational Posters
Educational posters will be available for viewing in the Grand Gallery of DeVos Place
outside the meeting rooms. Poster presenters will be available at various times to
discuss the information provided on their poster.
Education Credits for Pesticide Applicators and Certified Crop Advisors
Many of the education sessions will offer a re-certification point for
Private and Certified Pesticide Applicators and continuing education
units for Certified Crop Advisors. Instructions and necessary MDA
or MCCAP forms will be issued at each eligible session. The conference
program you receive at the EXPO will indicate the specific sessions
in which education credits will be available.
