Happy Birthday, Vineland Horticultural Experiment Station
















Today was the Alumni reunion and public open house to mark the 100th anniversary of the Vineland Horticultural Research Station. About 200 past and present employees and their families attended the morning reunion and picnic.
I saw a number of people that I hadn't seen for over 25 years!



The organizers did a wonderful job providing a picnic lunch.


























Bill Lay made this impressive display to demonstrate all the fruit varieties introduced by the Vineland Research Station. All of the names start with the letter "V" My favourite Veecot apricots were there.
