Hello to all.
I missed an error on my post for our February 2013 Upper Hudson -
Champlain Tree Fruit School.
I have resent the program with the corrected period noted below.
By chance I had contacted Jon Clements at UMASS, as to the size of
applecrop's readership?
I was wondering about this, particularly musing about the potential
for blooper multiplication.
I now have the satisfaction of knowing: I miss-informed about 500
people! My apology.
Best wishes to all for 2013.
Kevin Iungerman
