The Good Fruit Grower of the Year award is made annually to an innovative and inspiring fruit grower or orchard manager in North America who is a good employer, a good steward, and who grows quality fruit. Focus is on the grower’s horticultural commitment, but the award also recognizes those who have devoted time and energy to working on behalf of the fruit industry. The award is presented during the Washington State Horticultural Association’s annual meeting held in December.
