Have you ever wondered what the early days of the fruit club were like? Or wanted to talk to longtime orchard owners but not had the chance? Join this panel discussion to hear from a group of our longtime club members Carol Eggen, Jerry Gehrke, Ron Weston, and Cheryl Grunbock!

Doors open at 12:30 for munchies and socializing and at 1:00 we'll begin a panel discussion with several long-time club members, moderated by our club Secretary, Christina Reip. The panel will share their favorite experiences of the early days of fruit club, experiences growing fruit on the island, and their visions of for our club’s future. The hour promises to be lively and informative. This is an excellent chance for new members to get to know a bit of our heritage and ask questions of the group.

You will be welcome to ask questions during the session, but if you have questions you’d like to submit in advance, please send them to secretary@vashonislandfruitclub.org.

Time: 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM

Location: Vashon Maury Island Land Trust Building, 10014 SW Bank Rd, Vashon, WA 98070
