Thank you to everyone who joined us in Wasco County for our 2024 Fall Energy Symposium, and a special thank you to our event sponsors Energy Trust of Oregon, Wy’East RC&D, and Oregon Dept. of Energy.

What if we could merge tradition with innovation, fostering sustainable practices while celebrating the rich heritage of cherry farming? This vision comes to life each year at the Pre-Harvest Cherry Tour hosted by Oregon State University Extension. This year, our intern Max Hanley had the privilege of joining the event, witnessing firsthand how the cherry industry is embracing change for a better future. A key highlight of the tour was the display of cutting-edge electric farming equipment.
