Tuesday’s event begins at the Big 5 in Wenatchee at 7:30 before heading off to Oroville to look at Honeycrisps and then moving to Brewster for a discussion on Pazazz.

 

Wednesday’s journey starts at 8:00 near the McDougall and Sons Legacy Orchard in East Wenatchee for a look at more Honeycrisps and then moving to Wapato for the first cherry stop and wrapping up in Mattawa at Washington Fruit and Produce.
