Workshop on growing ‘Tahiti’ limes

FROM: Jonathan H. Crane, UF/IFAS/TREC Tropical Fruit Crop Specialist

We have planned a 1-day workshop for 17 November 2011 with exceptional speakers that will address various aspects of growing ‘Tahiti’ limes.  As you all know, we had a top-notch lime industry not too terribly long ago.  I am not saying we’ll see it re-established any-time soon but if you have any interest in trying some limes to test the market or for a specific market or just want to get updated on the latest in citrus growing as it relates to limes – this workshop is for you.  The registration fee is dirt cheap, $7.00.
