The Wisconsin Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Conference is an annual educational event for fresh market fruit and vegetable growers sponsored by the Wisconsin Berry Growers, Wisconsin Apple Growers, Wisconsin Fresh Market Vegetable Growers, Wisconsin Grape Growers Association, and Wisconsin Agricultural Tourism Associations

A 75-booth trade show is held in conjunction with the Conference on Sunday and Monday.  Exhibitors featuring farm equipment, seed, chemicals, supplies, financial products, government programs, etc. have the opportunity to meet growers and talk to existing customers.

Reserve your space today!  A standard booth is $480 or customize your space for $5.75 per square foot.  (See the map for show space.)  The first two representatives from each exhibiting company are entitled to attend any of the educational sessions at no additional charge!  And, again this year, we will give exhibitors time to talk to attendees about their company or products at “mini-seminars” on Tuesday morning.

The educational sessions, which run Sunday through Tuesday, are planned by the University of Wisconsin Extension.  Experts from across the country and around the world speak on topics dealing with production, marketing, business, and government regulation.
